Linux Access Control Lists library (libacl, -lacl). The function creates a new ACL entry in the ACL pointed to by the contents of the pointer argument On success, the function returns a descrip‐ tor for the new ACL entry via 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 with as an argu‐ ment. If the ACL working storage cannot be increased in the cur‐ rent location, then the working storage for the ACL pointed to by may be relocated and the previous working storage is released. A pointer to the new working storage is returned via The components of the new ACL entry are initialized in the following ways: the ACL tag type component contains ACL_UNDEFINED_TAG, the qualifier component contains ACL_UNDEFINED_ID, and the set of permissions has no permissions enabled. Any existing ACL entry descriptors that refer to entries in the ACL continue to refer to those en‐ tries. If any of the following conditions occur, the function returns and sets to the corresponding value: The argument is not a valid pointer to an ACL. The ACL working storage requires more memory than is allowed by the hardware or system‐imposed memory management constraints.
