Linux Access Control Lists library (libacl, -lacl).
SYNOPSIS
n sys/types.h
n sys/acl.h
DESCRIPTION
The
function sets the qualifier of the ACL entry indicated by the argument
to the value referred to by the argument
If the value of the tag type in the ACL entry referred to by
is ACL_USER, then the value referred to by
shall be of type
If the value of the tag type in the ACL entry referred to by
is ACL_GROUP, then the value referred to by
shall be of type
If the value of the tag type in the ACL entry referred to by
is a tag type for which a qualifier is not supported,
returns an error.
Any ACL entry descriptors that refer to the entry referred to by
continue to refer to that entry. This function may cause memory to be
allocated. The caller should free any releasable memory, when the ACL
is no longer required, by calling
with a pointer to the ACL as argument.
