|
|
.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm acl_get_fd
|
|
.Nd get an ACL by file descriptor
|
|
.Sh LIBRARY
|
|
Linux Access Control Lists library (libacl, \-lacl).
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In sys/types.h
|
|
.In sys/acl.h
|
|
.Ft acl_t
|
|
.Fn acl_get_fd "int fd"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn acl_get_fd
|
|
function retrieves the access ACL associated with the file referred to by
|
|
.Va fd .
|
|
The ACL is placed into working storage and
|
|
.Fn acl_get_fd
|
|
returns a pointer to that storage.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
In order to read an ACL from an object, a process must have read access to
|
|
the object's attributes.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
This function may cause memory to be allocated. The caller should free any
|
|
releasable memory, when the new ACL is no longer required, by calling
|
|
.Xr acl_free 3
|
|
with the
|
|
.Va (void*)acl_t
|
|
returned by
|
|
.Fn acl_get_fd
|
|
as an argument.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUE
|
|
On success, this function shall return a pointer to the
|
|
working storage. On error, a value of
|
|
.Li (acl_t)NULL
|
|
shall be returned, and
|
|
.Va errno
|
|
is set appropriately.
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
If any of the following conditions occur, the
|
|
.Fn acl_get_fd
|
|
function returns a value of
|
|
.Li (acl_t)NULL
|
|
and sets
|
|
.Va errno
|
|
to the corresponding value:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er
|
|
.It Bq Er EBADF
|
|
The
|
|
.Va fd
|
|
argument is not a valid file descriptor.
|
|
.It Bq Er ENOMEM
|
|
The ACL working storage requires more memory than is allowed by the hardware or system-imposed memory management constraints.
|
|
.It Bq Er ENOTSUP
|
|
The file system on which the file identified by
|
|
.Va fd
|
|
is located does not support ACLs, or ACLs are disabled.
