       The <code class="function">pam_strerror</code> function returns a pointer to
       a string describing the error code passed in the argument
       <span class="emphasis"><em>errnum</em></span>, possibly using the LC_MESSAGES part of
       the current locale to select the appropriate language. This string
       must not be modified by the application. No library function will
       modify this string.

      The <code class="function">pam_fail_delay</code> function provides a
      mechanism by which an application or module can suggest a minimum
      delay of <span class="emphasis"><em>usec</em></span> micro-seconds. The
      function  keeps a record of the longest time requested with this
      function. Should
      <span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">pam_authenticate</span>(3)</span> fail, the failing return to the application is
      delayed by an amount of time randomly distributed (by up to 25%)
      about this longest value.
    </p><p>
      Independent of success, the delay time is reset to its zero
      default value when the PAM service module returns control to
      the application. The delay occurs <span class="emphasis"><em>after</em></span> all
      authentication modules have been called, but <span class="emphasis"><em>before</em></span>
      control is returned to the service application.
    </p><p>
      When using this function the programmer should check if it is
      available with:
    </p><pre class="programlisting">
#ifdef HAVE_PAM_FAIL_DELAY
    ....
#endif /* HAVE_PAM_FAIL_DELAY */
      </pre><p>
      For applications written with a single thread that are event
      driven in nature, generating this delay may be undesirable.
      Instead, the application may want to register the delay in some
      other way. For example, in a single threaded server that serves
      multiple authentication requests from a single event loop, the
      application might want to simply mark a given connection as
      blocked until an application timer expires. For this reason
      the delay function can be changed with the
      <span class="emphasis"><em>PAM_FAIL_DELAY</em></span> item. It can be queried and
      set with
      <span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">pam_get_item</span>(3)</span>
      and
      <span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">pam_set_item </span>(3)</span>  respectively. The value used to set it should be
      a function pointer of the following prototype:
      </p><pre class="programlisting">
void (*delay_fn)(int retval, unsigned usec_delay, void *appdata_ptr);
      </pre><p>
      The arguments being the <span class="emphasis"><em>retval</em></span> return code
      of the module stack, the <span class="emphasis"><em>usec_delay</em></span>
      micro-second delay that libpam is requesting and the
      <span class="emphasis"><em>appdata_ptr</em></span> that the application has associated
      with the current <span class="emphasis"><em>pamh</em></span>. This last value was set
      by the application when it called
      <span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">pam_start</span>(3)</span> or explicitly with
      <span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">pam_set_item</span>(3)</span>.
      Note, if PAM_FAIL_DELAY item is unset (or set to NULL), then no delay
      will be performed.
