+    <para>
+      The <function>pam_xauth_data</function> structure contains X
+      authentication data used to make a connection to an X display.
+      Using this mechanism, an application can communicate X
+      authentication data to PAM service modules.  This allows modules to
+      make a connection to the user's X display in order to label the
+      user's session on login, display visual feedback or for other
+      purposes.
+    </para>
+    <para>
+      The <emphasis>name</emphasis> field contains the name of the
+      authentication method, such as "MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1".  The
+      <emphasis>namelen</emphasis> field contains the length of this string,
+      not including the trailing NUL character.
+    </para>
+    <para>
+      The <emphasis>data</emphasis> field contains the authentication
+      method-specific data corresponding to the specified name.  The
+      <emphasis>datalen</emphasis> field contains its length in bytes.
+    </para>
+    <para>
+      The X authentication data can be changed with the
+      <emphasis>PAM_XAUTH_DATA</emphasis> item. It can be queried and
+      set with
+      <citerefentry>
+        <refentrytitle>pam_get_item</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum>
+      </citerefentry>
+      and
+      <citerefentry>
+        <refentrytitle>pam_set_item </refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum>
+      </citerefentry>  respectively.  The value used to set it should be
+      a pointer to a pam_xauth_data structure.  An internal copy of both
+      the structure itself and its fields is made by PAM when setting the
+      item.
