NAME
acl_error -- convert an ACL error code to a text message
LIBRARY
Linux Access Control Lists library (libacl, -lacl).
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <acl/libacl.h>
const char *
acl_error(int code);
DESCRIPTION
The acl_error() function converts an ACL error code such as returned by
the acl_check() function to a text message describing the error condi-
tion. In the "POSIX" locale, acl_check() returns the following descrip-
tions for the error codes.
ACL_MULTI_ERROR "Multiple entries"
ACL_DUPLICATE_ERROR "Duplicate entries"
ACL_MISS_ERROR "Missing or wrong entry"
ACL_ENTRY_ERROR "Invalid entry type"
RETURN VALUE
The acl_error() function returns a text message if the error code is rec-
ognized, and a value of (const char *)NULL otherwise.
STANDARDS
This is a non-portable, Linux specific extension to the ACL manipulation
functions defined in IEEE Std 1003.1e draft 17 ("POSIX.1e", abandoned).
