Linux Access Control Lists library (libacl, -lacl). The function retrieves the qualifier from the ACL entry indicated by the argu‐ ment into working storage and returns a pointer to that storage. If the value of the tag type in the ACL entry referred to by is ACL_USER, then the value returned by is a pointer to type If the value of the tag type in the ACL entry referred to by is ACL_GROUP, then the value returned by is a pointer to type If the tag type in the ACL entry referred to by is a tag type for which a qualifier is not supported, returns a value of and the function fails. Subsequent operations using the returned pointer operate on an independent copy of the qualifier in working storage, and will not change the qualifier of the ACL entry. This function may cause memory to be allocated. The caller should free any re‐ leasable memory, when the new qualifier is no longer required, by calling with the value returned by as an argument. The argument and any other ACL entry descriptors that refer to entries within the ACL containing the entry referred to by continue to refer to those entries. The order of all existing entries in the ACL con‐ taining the entry referred to by remains unchanged. On success, the function returns a pointer to the tag qualifier that was re‐ trieved into ACL working storage. On error, a value of is re‐ turned and is set appropriately. If any of the following condi‐ tions occur, the function returns and sets to the corresponding value: The argument is not a valid descriptor for an ACL entry. The value of the tag type in the ACL entry referenced by the ar‐ gument is neither ACL_USER nor ACL_GROUP. The value to be re‐ turned requires more memory than is allowed by the hardware or system‐imposed memory management constraints.
