# DKIM_PSTATE

DESCRIPTION |
Purpose | A `DKIM_PSTATE` is an opaque structure which contains state information with respect to policy lookups. DKIM policy evaluation is a multi-step process which can involve several queries to look up SSP or other information about a sending domain. When a policy lookup callback is in use (see `dkim_set_policy_lookup()`), the callback might be unable to complete a particular lookup and thus return `DKIM_CBSTAT_TRYAGAIN`. In such cases, it is likely desirable to resume the incomplete policy lookup when the calling application knows it can complete the query. The `DKIM_PSTATE` is a state structure which is loaded with information required to resume a policy evaluation where a callback caused it to be suspended. Before use, it should be allocated by the caller and cleared using `bzero()` or `memset()`.
NOTES | None.
