ACL_SET_PERMSET(3)      BSD Library Functions Manual      ACL_SET_PERMSET(3)

NAME         top

     acl_set_permset — set the permission set in an ACL entry

LIBRARY         top

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

SYNOPSIS         top

     #include <sys/types.h>
     #include <sys/acl.h>
     int
     acl_set_permset(acl_entry_t entry_d, acl_permset_t permset_d);

DESCRIPTION         top

     The acl_set_permset() function sets the permission set of the ACL entry
     indicated by the argument entry_d to the permissions contained in the
     argument permset_d.
     Any ACL entry descriptors that refer to the entry containing the per‐
     mission set referred to by permset_d shall continue to refer to those
     entries. Any ACL entry descriptors that refer to the entry referred to
     by entry_d shall continue to refer to that entry.

RETURN VALUE         top

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

ERRORS         top

     If any of the following conditions occur, the acl_set_permset() func‐
     tion returns -1 and sets errno to the corresponding value:
     [EINVAL]           The argument entry_d is not a valid descriptor for
                        an ACL entry.
                        The argument permset_d is not a valid descriptor for
                        a permission set within an ACL entry.
                        The argument permset_d contains values which are not
                        valid acl_permset_t values.
