Description:

The fs_crypto_domain_remove() function destroys a domain. Once a domain has been removed, the private key data used to encrypt files associated with the domain is lost, and it isn't possible to retrieve any files in the domain.

Note:
  • In order to use filesystem encryption, download the Encrypted Filesystem package from the QNX Software Center.
  • You must be in the group that owns the filesystem's mountpoint in order to remove a domain.

This function sets the variable pointed to by preply to one of the following values:

FS_CRYPTO_REPLY_COMPLETE
The domain was successfully deleted.
FS_CRYPTO_REPLY_ERRNO
See the error code for more information.
FS_CRYPTO_REPLY_INVALID
The command wasn't completed successfully.
FS_CRYPTO_REPLY_READONLY
The filesystem is mounted read-only.
FS_CRYPTO_REPLY_UNKNOWN_DOMAIN
There's no domain with the given number.

Returns:

EOK
Success.
EACCES
The calling process doesn't have permission to remove the domain.
EINVAL
Invalid arguments.

This function can also return any of the errors indicated by devctl() or open().
