ACL_GET_FLAGSET_NP

NAME
     acl_get_flagset_np -- retrieve flag set from an ACL or ACL entry

LIBRARY
     Standard C Library (libc, -lc)

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

     int
     acl_get_flagset_np(void *obj, acl_flagset_t *flagset_p);

DESCRIPTION
     The acl_get_flagset_np() function is a nonstandard extension that returns
     via flagset_p a descriptor to the flag set in the ACL or ACL entry obj.
     Subsequent operations using the returned flag set operate on the permission
     set within the ACL or ACL entry.

RETURN VALUES
     The acl_get_flagset() 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() function fails if:

     [EINVAL]           Argument obj is not a valid descriptor for an ACL or
                        ACL entry.
