+.SH "NAME"
+\fBsudoers_timestamp\fR
+\- Sudoers Time Stamp Format
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+The
+\fBsudoers\fR
+plugin uses per-user-ID time stamp files for credential caching.
+Once a user has been authenticated, they may use
+\fBsudo\fR
+without a password for a short period of time
+(\fI@timeout@\fR
+minutes unless overridden by the
+\fItimestamp_timeout\fR
+option)
+\&.
+By default,
+\fBsudoers\fR
+uses a separate record for each terminal, which means that
+a user's login sessions are authenticated separately.
+The
+\fItimestamp_type\fR
+option can be used to select the type of time stamp record
+\fBsudoers\fR
+will use.
+.PP
+A multi-record time stamp file format was introduced in
+\fBsudo\fR
+1.8.10 that uses a single file per user.
+Previously, a separate file was used for each user and terminal
+combination unless tty-based time stamps were disabled.
+The new format is extensible and records of multiple types and versions
+may coexist within the same file.
+.PP
+All records, regardless of type or version, begin with a 16-bit version
+number and a 16-bit record size.
+.PP
+Time stamp records have the following structure:
+.nf
+.sp
+.RS 0n
+/* Time stamp entry types */
+#define TS_GLOBAL               0x01    /* not restricted by tty or ppid */
+#define TS_TTY                  0x02    /* restricted by tty */
+#define TS_PPID                 0x03    /* restricted by ppid */
+#define TS_LOCKEXCL             0x04    /* special lock record */
+
+/* Time stamp flags */
+#define TS_DISABLED             0x01    /* entry disabled */
+#define TS_ANYUID               0x02    /* ignore uid, only valid in key */
+
+struct timestamp_entry {
+    unsigned short version;     /* version number */
+    unsigned short size;        /* entry size */
+    unsigned short type;        /* TS_GLOBAL, TS_TTY, TS_PPID */
+    unsigned short flags;       /* TS_DISABLED, TS_ANYUID */
+    uid_t auth_uid;             /* uid to authenticate as */
+    pid_t sid;                  /* session ID associated with tty/ppid */
+    struct timespec start_time; /* session/ppid start time */
+    struct timespec ts;         /* time stamp (CLOCK_MONOTONIC) */
+    union {
+        dev_t ttydev;           /* tty device number */
+        pid_t ppid;             /* parent pid */
+    } u;

+.PP
+The timestamp_entry struct fields are as follows:
+.TP 6n
+version
+The version number of the timestamp_entry struct.
+New entries are created with a version number of 2.
+Records with different version numbers may coexist in the
+same file but are not inter-operable.
+.TP 6n
+size
+The size of the record in bytes.
+.TP 6n
+type
+The record type, currently
+\fRTS_GLOBAL\fR,
+\fRTS_TTY\fR,
+or
+\fRTS_PPID\fR.
+.TP 6n
+flags
+.br
+Zero or more record flags which can be bit-wise ORed together.
+Supported flags are
+\fRTS_DISABLED\fR,
+for records disabled via
+\fBsudo\fR
+\fB\-k\fR
+and
+\fRTS_ANYUID\fR,
+which is used only when matching records.
+.TP 6n
+auth_uid
+The user-ID that was used for authentication.
+Depending on the value of the
+\fIrootpw\fR,
+\fIrunaspw\fR
+and
+\fItargetpw\fR
+options, the user-ID may be that of the invoking user, the root user,
+the default runas user or the target user.
+.TP 6n
+sid
+The ID of the user's terminal session, if present.
+The session ID is only used when matching records of type
+\fRTS_TTY\fR.
+.TP 6n
+start_time
+The start time of the session leader for records of type
+\fRTS_TTY\fR
+or of the parent process for records of type
+\fRTS_PPID\fR.
+The
+\fIstart_time\fR
+is used to help prevent re-use of a time stamp record after a
+user has logged out.
+Not all systems support a method to easily retrieve a process's
+start time.
+The
+\fIstart_time\fR
+field was added in
+\fBsudoers\fR
+version 1.8.22 for the second revision of the timestamp_entry struct.
+.TP 6n
+ts
+The actual time stamp.
+A monotonic time source (which does not move backward) is used if the
+system supports it.
+Where possible,
+\fBsudoers\fR
+uses a monotonic timer that increments even while the system
+is suspended.
+The value of
+\fIts\fR
+is updated each time a command is run via
+\fBsudo\fR.
+If the difference between
+\fIts\fR
+and the current time is less than the value of the
+\fItimestamp_timeout\fR
+option, no password is required.
+.TP 6n
+u.ttydev
+The device number of the terminal associated with the session for
+records of type
+\fRTS_TTY\fR.
+.TP 6n
+u.ppid
+The ID of the parent process for records of type
+\fRTS_PPID\fR.
+.SH "LOCKING"
+In
+\fBsudoers\fR
+versions 1.8.10 through 1.8.14, the entire time stamp file was
+locked for exclusive access when reading or writing to the file.
+Starting in
+\fBsudoers\fR
+1.8.15, individual records are locked in the time stamp file instead
+of the entire file and the lock is held for a longer period of time.
+This scheme is described below.
+.PP
+The first record in the time stamp file is of type
+\fRTS_LOCKEXCL\fR
+and is used as a
+\fIlock\fR
+record to prevent more than one
+\fBsudo\fR
+process from adding a new record at the same time.
+Once the desired time stamp record has been located or created (and
+locked), the
+\fRTS_LOCKEXCL\fR
+record is unlocked.
+The lock on the individual time stamp record, however, is held until
+authentication is complete.
+This allows
+\fBsudoers\fR
+to avoid prompting for a password multiple times when it
+is used more than once in a pipeline.
+.PP
+Records of type
+\fRTS_GLOBAL\fR
+cannot be locked for a long period of time since doing so would
+interfere with other
+\fBsudo\fR
+processes.
+Instead, a separate lock record is used to prevent multiple
+\fBsudo\fR
+processes using the same terminal (or parent process ID) from
+prompting for a password as the same time.
+.SH "SEE ALSO"
+sudoers(@mansectform@),
+sudo(@mansectsu@)
+.SH "HISTORY"
+Originally,
+\fBsudo\fR
+used a single zero-length file per user and the file's modification
+time was used as the time stamp.
+Later versions of
+\fBsudo\fR
+added restrictions on the ownership of the time stamp files and
+directory as well as checks on the validity of the time stamp itself.
+Notable changes were introduced in the following
+\fBsudo\fR
+versions:
+.TP 6n
+1.4.0
+.br
+Support for tty-based time stamp file was added
+by appending the terminal name to the time stamp file name.
+.TP 6n
+1.6.2
+.br
+The time stamp file was replaced by a per-user directory which
+contained any tty-based time stamp files.
+.TP 6n
+1.6.3p2
+The target user name was added to the time stamp file name when the
+\fItargetpw\fR
+option was set.
+.TP 6n
+1.7.3
+.br
+Information about the terminal device was stored in
+tty-based time stamp files for validity checks.
+This included the terminal device numbers, inode number and, on systems
+where it was not updated when the device was written to, the inode change time.
+This helped prevent re-use of the time stamp file after logout.
+.TP 6n
+1.8.6p7
+The terminal session ID was added to tty-based time stamp files to
+prevent re-use of the time stamp by the same user in a different
+terminal session.
+It also helped prevent re-use of the time stamp file on systems where
+the terminal device's inode change time was updated by writing.
+.TP 6n
+1.8.10
+A new, multi-record time stamp file format was introduced that uses a
+single file per user.
+The terminal device's change time was not included since most
+systems now update the change time after a write is performed
+as required by POSIX.
+.TP 6n
+1.8.15
+Individual records are locked in the time stamp file instead of the
+entire file and the lock is held until authentication is complete.
+.TP 6n
+1.8.22
+The start time of the terminal session leader or parent process is
+now stored in non-global time stamp records.
+This prevents re-use of the time stamp file after logout in most cases.
+.sp
+Support was added for the kernel-based tty time stamps available in
+OpenBSD
+which do not use an on-disk time stamp file.
+.TP 6n
+1.9.15
+Time stamp file path names are now based on the invoking user-ID
+instead of the user name.
+This avoids problems with user names that include a path separator
+character.
