ACL_CREATE_ENTRY(3)					   BSD Library Functions Manual 				       ACL_CREATE_ENTRY(3)

NAME
acl_create_entry, acl_create_entry_np -- create a new ACL entry LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc) SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/acl.h> int acl_create_entry(acl_t *acl_p, acl_entry_t *entry_p); int acl_create_entry_np(acl_t *acl_p, acl_entry_t *entry_p, int entry_index); DESCRIPTION
The acl_create_entry() function is a POSIX.1e call that creates a new ACL entry in the ACL pointed to by acl_p. The function will return in entry_p a descriptor for this ACL entry. The acl_create_entry_np() function is a non-portable extension which allows the caller to specify the position of the created entry within the ACL. If entry_index is ACL_FIRST_ENTRY the entry will be created at the head of the ACL. If entry_index is ACL_LAST_ENTRY the entry will be created at the end of the ACL. After inserting an ACL entry with an entry_index other than ACL_LAST_ENTRY the behaviour of any acl_entry_t's previously obtained from the ACL by acl_create_entry() or acl_get_entry() is undefined. RETURN VALUES
The acl_create_entry() 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
The acl_create_entry() and acl_create_entry_np() functions fail if: [EINVAL] Argument acl_p does not point to a pointer to a valid ACL. [ENOMEM] The ACL working storage requires more memory than is allowed by the hardware or system-imposed memory management con- straints. [ERANGE] The entry_index argument to acl_create_entry_np() is greater than the number of entries in the ACL. SEE ALSO
acl(3), acl_delete_entry(3), acl_get_entry(3), posix1e(3) STANDARDS
