+
+This module makes sure the calling process has its own session keyring rather
+than using the default per-user session keyring.
+
+The following words may be supplied as arguments to the module through the PAM
+configuration scripts:
+
+ (*) "force"
+
+ This will cause the process's current session keyring to be replaced with
+ a new one. If this isn't supplied, a session keyring will only be created
+ if the process doesn't already have its own.
+
+ (*) "revoke"
+
+ If the module actually created a keyring, this will cause that keyring to
+ be revoked on session closure.
+
+ (*) "debug"
+
+ This will cause the module to write some debugging information to the
+ syslog.
