A sasl_secret_t should be allocated to length `sizeof(sasl_secret_t) + <length of secret>`. It has two fields: `len` which is the length of the secret in bytes and `data` which contains the secret itself (does not need to be null terminated). :param conn: is the SASL connection context Return Value ============ SASL callback functions should return SASL return codes. See sasl.h for a complete list. :c:macro:`SASL_OK` indicates success. Other return codes indicate errors and should be handled.
