Overview ¶
Command v23agentd runs the security agent daemon, which holds the private key, blessings and recognized roots of a principal in memory and makes the principal available to other processes.
Other processes can access the agent credentials when V23_AGENT_PATH is set to <credential dir>/agent/sock.
Exits right away if another agent is already serving the credentials. Exits when there are no processes accessing the credentials (after a grace period).
Example:
$ v23agentd $HOME/.credentials $ V23_AGENT_PATH=$HOME/.credentials/agent/sock principal dump
Usage:
v23agentd [flags] credentials
The path for the directory containing the credentials to be served by the agent.
The v23agentd flags are:
-daemon=true Run the agent as a daemon (returns right away but leaves the agent running in the background) -stop=false Stop the agent serving the credentials, if any is running -timeout=0 How long the agent stays alive without any client connections. Zero implies no timeout. -with-version=0 Version that the agent should use. Will fail if the version is not in the range of supported versions (obtained from the --metadata flag)
The global flags are:
-alsologtostderr=true log to standard error as well as files -log_backtrace_at=:0 when logging hits line file:N, emit a stack trace -log_dir= if non-empty, write log files to this directory -logtostderr=false log to standard error instead of files -max_stack_buf_size=4292608 max size in bytes of the buffer to use for logging stack traces -metadata=<just specify -metadata to activate> Displays metadata for the program and exits. -stderrthreshold=2 logs at or above this threshold go to stderr -time=false Dump timing information to stderr before exiting the program. -v=0 log level for V logs -vmodule= comma-separated list of globpattern=N settings for filename-filtered logging (without the .go suffix). E.g. foo/bar/baz.go is matched by patterns baz or *az or b* but not by bar/baz or baz.go or az or b.* -vpath= comma-separated list of regexppattern=N settings for file pathname-filtered logging (without the .go suffix). E.g. foo/bar/baz.go is matched by patterns foo/bar/baz or fo.*az or oo/ba or b.z but not by foo/bar/baz.go or fo*az
