ACL_DELETE_ENTRY(3) FreeBSD Library Functions Manual ACL_DELETE_ENTRY(3)

acl_delete_entry, acl_delete_entry_np
delete an ACL entry from an ACL

Standard C Library (libc, -lc)

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

int
acl_delete_entry(acl_t acl, acl_entry_t entry_d);

int
acl_delete_entry_np(acl_t acl, int index);

The acl_delete_entry() function is a POSIX.1e call that removes the ACL entry entry_d from ACL acl. The acl_delete_entry_np() function is a non-portable version that removes the ACL entry at position index from ACL acl. Positions are numbered starting from zero, i.e. calling acl_delete_entry_np() with index argument equal to zero will remove the first ACL entry.

The acl_delete_entry() function returns the value 0 if successful; otherwise the value -1 is returned and the global variable errno is set to indicate the error.

The acl_delete_entry() function fails if:
[]
Argument acl does not point to a valid ACL. Argument entry_d is not a valid descriptor for an ACL entry in acl. Argument index is out of bounds.

acl(3), acl_copy_entry(3), acl_get_entry(3), posix1e(3)

POSIX.1e is described in IEEE POSIX.1e draft 17.

POSIX.1e support was introduced in FreeBSD 4.0. The acl_delete_entry() function was added in FreeBSD 5.0.

The acl_delete_entry() function was written by Chris D. Faulhaber <jedgar@fxp.org>.
June 25, 2009 FreeBSD 13.1-RELEASE
