ACL_CREATE_ENTRY(3)	 BSD Library Functions Manual	   ACL_CREATE_ENTRY(3)

NAME
     acl_create_entry, acl_create_entry_np -- create a new ACL entry

LIBRARY
     Standard C	Library	(libc, -lc)

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

     int
     acl_create_entry(acl_t *acl_p, acl_entry_t	*entry_p);

     int
     acl_create_entry_np(acl_t *acl_p, acl_entry_t *entry_p, int index);

DESCRIPTION
     The acl_create_entry() function is	a POSIX.1e call	that creates a new ACL
     entry in the ACL pointed to by acl_p.  The	acl_create_entry_np() function
     is	a non-portable version that creates the	ACL entry at position index.
     Positions are numbered starting from zero,	i.e. calling
     acl_create_entry_np() with	index argument equal to	zero will prepend the
     entry to the ACL.

RETURN VALUES
     The acl_create_entry() function returns the value 0 if successful;	other-
     wise the value -1 is returned and the global variable errno is set	to in-
     dicate the	error.

ERRORS
     The acl_create_entry() function fails if:

     [EINVAL]		Argument acl_p does not	point to a pointer to a	valid
			ACL.  Argument index is	out of bounds.

     [ENOMEM]		The ACL	working	storage	requires more memory than is
			allowed	by the hardware	or system-imposed memory man-
			agement	constraints.

SEE ALSO
     acl(3), acl_delete_entry(3), acl_get_entry(3), posix1e(3)

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

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

AUTHORS
     The acl_create_entry() function was written by Chris D. Faulhaber
     <jedgar@fxp.org>.
