Description:
This function parses a text file and creates a sandbox. The text file must be a UNIX text file
(LF) not a DOS text file (CRLF).
Returns:
The sandbox identifier, if successful in creating the sandbox.
- negative value
- An error occurred (errno is NOT set, the value is the negative of a
value from the Errors section) and the sandbox could not be created.
Errors:
- EACCES
- Search permission is denied on a component of the confpath prefix.
- EBADMSG
- Parsing the confpath file failed. If you get this error, open the
confpath file, and call sandbox_parse_config() directly to
debug it. It returns the line on which the parse failed. See the Security Developer's
Guide for an example of how to use sandbox_parse_config() to initialize a
sandbox configuration.
- ENOENT
- The confpath file was not found.
- ENOMEM
- Not enough memory was available to create the sandbox. Failed to allocate local storage for the
sandbox.
- EPERM
- The calling process doesn't have the required permission.
