NAME
acl_trivial - determine whether a file has a trivial ACL SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -lsec [ library... ] #include <sys/acl.h> int acl_trivial(char *path); DESCRIPTION
The acl_trivial() function is used to determine whether a file has a trivial ACL. Whether an ACL is trivial depends on the type of the ACL. A POSIX draft ACL is trivial if it has greater than MIN_ACL_ENTRIES. An NFSv4/ZFS-style ACL is trivial if it either has entries other than owner@, group@, and everyone@, has inheritance flags set, or is not ordered in a manner that meets POSIX access control requirements. RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, acl_trivial() returns 0 if the file's ACL is trivial and 1 if the file's ACL is not trivial. If it could not be determined whether a file's ACL is trivial, -1 is returned and errno is set to indicate the error. ERRORS
The acl_trivial() function will fail if: EACCES A file's ACL could not be read. ENOENT A component of path does not name an existing file or path is an empty string. ATTRIBUTES

NAME
acl_strip - remove all ACLs from a file SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -lsec [ library... ] #include <sys/acl.h> int acl_strip(const char *path, uid_t uid, gid_t gid, mode_t mode); DESCRIPTION
The acl_strip() function removes all ACLs from a file and replaces them with a trivial ACL based on the mode argument. After replacing the ACL, the owner and group of the file are set to the values specified by the uid and gid arguments. RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, acl_strip() returns 0. Otherwise it returns -1 and sets errno to indicate the error. ERRORS
The acl_strip() function will fail if: EACCES Search permission is denied on a component of the path prefix of path. EFAULT The path argument points to an illegal address. EINVAL The uid or gid argument is out of range. EIO A disk I/O error has occurred while storing or retrieving the ACL. ELOOP A loop exists in symbolic links encountered during the resolution of the path argument. ENAMETOOLONG The length of the path argument exceeds {PATH_MAX}, or the length of a path component exceeds {NAME_MAX} while _POSIX_NO_TRUNC is in effect. ENOENT A component of path does not exist. ENOTDIR A component of the prefix of path is not a directory. EPERM The effective user ID does not match the owner of the file and the process does not have appropriate privileges. EROFS The file system is mounted read-only. ATTRIBUTES
