ACL_SET_TAG_TYPE(3) BSD Library Functions Manual ACL_SET_TAG_TYPE(3)NAME
acl_set_tag_type — set the tag type of an ACL entry
LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/acl.h>
int
acl_set_tag_type(acl_entry_t entry_d, acl_tag_t tag_type);
DESCRIPTION
The acl_set_tag_type() function is a POSIX.1e call that sets the ACL tag
type of ACL entry entry_d to the value of tag_type.
Valid values are:
ACL_USER_OBJ Permissions apply to file owner
ACL_USER Permissions apply to additional user specified by
qualifier
ACL_GROUP_OBJ Permissions apply to file group
ACL_GROUP Permissions apply to additional group specified by
qualifier
ACL_MASK Permissions specify mask
ACL_OTHER Permissions apply to other
ACL_OTHER_OBJ Same as ACL_OTHER
ACL_EVERYONE Permissions apply to everyone@
Calling acl_set_tag_type() with tag_type equal to ACL_MASK, ACL_OTHER or
ACL_OTHER_OBJ brands the ACL as POSIX.1e. Calling it with ACL_EVERYONE
brands the ACL as NFSv4.
RETURN VALUES
The acl_set_tag_type() function returns the value 0 if successful; other‐
wise the value -1 is returned and the global variable errno is set to
indicate the error.
ERRORS
The acl_set_tag_type() function fails if:
[EINVAL] Argument entry_d is not a valid descriptor for an ACL
entry. Argument tag_type is not a valid ACL tag type.
ACL is already branded differently.
