Provided by: libacl1-dev_2.3.1-3_amd64 bug

NAME

     acl_get_permset — retrieve the permission set from an ACL entry

LIBRARY

     Linux Access Control Lists library (libacl, -lacl).

SYNOPSIS

     #include <sys/types.h>
     #include <sys/acl.h>

     int
     acl_get_permset(acl_entry_t entry_d, acl_permset_t *permset_p);

DESCRIPTION

     The acl_get_permset() function returns in permset_p a descriptor to the permission set in
     the ACL entry indicated by entry_d.  Subsequent operations using the returned permission set
     descriptor operate on the permission set within the ACL entry.

     Any ACL entry descriptors that refer to the entry referred to by entry_d shall continue to
     refer to those entries.

RETURN VALUE

     The acl_get_permset() function returns the value 0 if successful; otherwise the value -1 is
     returned and the global variable errno is set to indicate the error.

ERRORS

     If any of the following conditions occur, the acl_get_permset() function returns -1 and sets
     errno to the corresponding value:

     [EINVAL]           The argument entry_d is not a valid descriptor for an ACL entry.

STANDARDS

     IEEE Std 1003.1e draft 17 (“POSIX.1e”, abandoned)
