Sometimes it is desirable to query the current effective settings or change them afterward. .Pp Since the process environment variables are maintained by higher-level libraries, the run-time linker cannot access them after the image activation. The described functions make it possible to operate on rtld settings. .Pp The .Fn rtld_get_var function returns the current value of the named parameter. .Pp The .Fn rtld_set_var functions changes the value of the parameter to the new .Fa value value, if possible. The .Fa name argument to both functions is the name of the parameter, which is same as the corresponding environment variable .Pq see Xr rtld 1 but without the .Ev LD_ (or .Ev LD_32_ or any other ABI-specific) prefix. .Sh RETURN VALUES The .Fn rtld_get_var returns the current value of the named parameter, or .Dv NULL if the name is invalid. .Pp The .Fn rtld_set_var returns 0 on success, or an integer indicating the error condition which prevented the operation. .Sh ERRORS Possible errors returned from .Fn rtld_set_var : .Bl -tag -width Er .It Bq Er EPERM The requested change cannot be made at runtime, either because the runtime linker can only take this parameter at initialization time, or because the current process is executing with elevated privileges. .It Bq ENOENT The supplied parameter .Fa name is unknown. .El .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr rtld 1 .Sh HISTORY The .Nm function first appeared in .Fx 15.0 .
