+.Sh NAME
+.Nm cap_clear
+.Nd Initialize a Capability State in Working Store
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Fd #include <sys/types.h>
+.Fd #include <sys/capability.h>
+.Ft int
+.Fn cap_clear "cap_t cap_p"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The function
+.Fn cap_clear
+shall initialize the capability state in working storage identified by
+.Ar cap_p
+so that all capability flags for all capabilities defined in the
+implementation shall be cleared.
+.Sh IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
+FreeBSD's support for POSIX.1e interfaces and features is still under
+development at this time.
+.Sh RETURN VALUES
+Upon successful completion, the function shall return a value of zero.
+Otherwise, a value of -1 shall be returned and
+.Va errno
+shall be set to indicate the error.
+.Sh ERRORS
+If any of the following conditions occur, the
+.Fn cap_clear
+function shall return -1 and set
+.Va errno
+to the corresponding value:
+.Bl -tag -width Er
+.It Bq Er EINVAL
+The value of the
+.Va cap_p
+argument does not refer to a capability state in the working storage.
+Search permission is denied for a component of the path prefix, or the
+.El

+.Sh STANDARDS
+POSIX.1e is described in IEEE POSIX.1e draft 17. Discussion
+of the draft continues on the cross-platform POSIX.1e implementation
+mailing list. To join this list, see the

+POSIX.1e implementation
+page for more information.
+.Sh HISTORY
+Support for POSIX.1e Capabilities was developed as part of the TrustedBSD
+Project.
+POSIX.1e Capability support was introduced in
+.Fx 5.0 ,
+and development continues.
+.Sh AUTHORS
+.An Robert N M Watson
+.Sh BUGS
