NAME

       acl_set_permset — set the permission set in an ACL entry

LIBRARY

       Linux Access Control Lists library (libacl, -lacl).

SYNOPSIS

       #include <sys/types.h>
       #include <sys/acl.h>

       int
       acl_set_permset(acl_entry_t entry_d, acl_permset_t permset_d);

DESCRIPTION

       The acl_set_permset() function sets the permission set of the ACL entry indicated by the argument entry_d
       to the permissions contained in the argument permset_d.

       Any  ACL entry descriptors that refer to the entry containing the permission set referred to by permset_d
       shall continue to refer to those entries. Any ACL entry descriptors that refer to the entry  referred  to
       by entry_d shall continue to refer to that entry.

RETURN VALUE

       The  acl_set_permset() 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

       If any of the following conditions occur, the acl_set_permset() function returns -1 and sets errno to the
       corresponding value:

       [EINVAL]           The argument entry_d is not a valid descriptor for an ACL entry.

                          The argument permset_d is not a valid descriptor for a permission set  within  an  ACL
                          entry.

                          The argument permset_d contains values which are not valid acl_permset_t values.
