The
acl_copy_int ();
function copies an exportable, contiguous, persistent form of an ACL, pointed to by
buf_p
to the internal representation.
This function may cause memory to be allocated. The caller should free any
releasable memory, when the new ACL is no longer required, by calling
acl_free3
with the
(void*)acl_t
returned by
acl_copy_int ();
as an argument.
RETURN VALUE
Upon success,
the
acl_copy_int ();
function returns a pointer that references the ACL in working storage.
On error, a value of
(acl_t)NULL
is returned, and
errno
is set appropriately.
ERRORS
If any of the following conditions occur, the
acl_copy_int ();
function returns a value of
(acl_t)NULL
and sets
errno
to the corresponding value:
Bq Er EINVAL
The buffer pointed to by the argument
buf_p
does not contain a valid external form ACL.
Bq Er ENOMEM
The ACL working storage requires more memory than is allowed by the hardware or system-imposed memory management constraints.
