NAME
acl_get_permset — retrieve the permission set from an ACL entry
LIBRARY
Linux Access Control Lists library (libacl, -lacl).
SYNOPSIS
<sys/types.h> <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)
