If the pointer -.Va len_p -is not NULL, then the function shall return the length of the string (not -including the NULL terminator) in the location pointed to by -.Va len_p . -The format of the text string returned by -.Fn acl_to_text -shall be the POSIX.1e long ACL form. - -This function allocates any memory necessary to contain the string and -returns a pointer to the string. The caller should free any releasable -memory, when the new string is no longer required, by calling -.Xr acl_free 3 -with the -.Va (void*)char -as an argument. -.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 pointer to the -long text form of an ACL. Otherwise, a value of -.Va (char*)NULL -shall be returned and -.Va errno -shall be set to indicate the error. -.Sh ERRORS -If any of the following conditions occur, the -.Fn acl_to_text -function shall return a value of -.Va (acl_t)NULL -and set -.Va errno -to the corresponding value: -.Bl -tag -width Er -.It Bq Er EINVAL -Argument -.Va acl -does not point to a valid ACL. - -The ACL denoted by -.Va acl -contains one or more improperly formed ACL entries, or for some other -reason cannot be translated into a text form of an ACL. -.It Bq Er ENOMEM -The character string to be returned requires more memory than is allowed -by the hardware or software-imposed memory management constraints. -.El -.Sh SEE ALSO -.Xr acl 3 , -.Xr acl_free 3 , -.Xr acl_from_text 3 , -.Xr posix1e 3 -.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 FreeBSD POSIX.1e implementation -page for more information. -.Sh HISTORY -POSIX.1e support was introduced in -.Fx 4.0 , -and development continues. -.Sh AUTHORS -.An Robert N M Watson -.Sh BUGS -These features are not yet fully implemented. In particular, the shipped -version of UFS/FFS does not support storage of additional security labels, -and so is unable to (easily) provide support for most of these features. - -.Fn acl_from_text -and -.Fn acl_to_text -rely on the -.Xr getpwent 3 -library calls to manage username and uid mapping, as well as the -.Xr getgrent 3 -library calls to manage groupname and gid mapping. These calls are not -thread safe, and so transitively, neither are -.Fn acl_from_text -and -.Fn acl_to_text . -These functions may also interfere with stateful -calls associated with the -.Fn getpwent -and -.Fn getgrent -calls. |
