Overview

The acl_get_flagset_np() function is a non-portable call that returns via flagset_np_p a descriptor to the flagset in the NFSv4 ACL entry entry_d. Subsequent operations using the returned flagset operate on the flagset within the ACL entry.

Return values

The acl_get_flagset_np() 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_get_flagset_np() function fails if:

[EINVAL]

Argument entry_d is not a valid descriptor for an ACL entry.
