SYNOPSIS
       #include <sys/acl.h>
       char * acl_to_text(	acl_t acl_d	 ssize_t *len_p);

PARAMETERS
       Designates  the	working storage internal representation of an ACL to convert to text external representation.  Pointer to location to hold
       the length of the returned string or NULL.

DESCRIPTION
       NOTE:  This function is based on Draft 13 of the POSIX P1003.6 standard.

       Given an ACL the acl_to_text() function converts it into a NULL terminated ASCII character string. The acl_to_text() function allocates any
       memory necessary and places the length of the string returned at len_p.

RETURN VALUES
       Upon  successful completion, the acl_to_text() function returns an address pointing to the text external representation of the ACL.  Other-
       wise, a value of NULL is returned and errno is set to indicate the error.

ERRORS
       If any of the following conditions occur, the acl_to_text() function sets errno to the corresponding value:

       The argument acl_d is not in a recognized format.  The argument acl_d contains one or more improperly formatted ACL entries.  There is  not
       enough memory available to the process to allocate the character string.
