+.Os
+.Sh NAME
+.Nm cap_set_flag
+.Nd set the value of a capability flag
+.Sh LIBRARY
+.Lb libc
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.In sys/types.h
+.In sys/capability.h
+.Ft int
+.Fn cap_set_flag "cap_t cap_p" "cap_flag_t flag" "int ncap" "cap_value_t caps[]" "cap_flag_value_t value"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+This function shall set the flag
+.Ar flag
+of each capability in the array
+.Ar caps
+in the capability state in working storage identified by
+.Ar cap_p
+to
+.Ar value .
+The argument
+.Ar ncap
+is used to specify the number of capabilities in the array
+.Ar caps .
+Implementations may place restrictions on the setting of the flags in a capability state.
+.Sh IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
+.Fx Ns 's
+support for POSIX.1e interfaces and features is still under
+development at this time.
+.Sh RETURN VALUES
+.Rv -std cap_set_flag
+The capability state identified by
+.Ar cap_p
+shall not be affected if the function fails.
+.Sh ERRORS
+If any of the following conditions occur, the
+.Fn cap_set_flag
+function shall return -1 and set
+.Ar errno
+to the corresponding value:
+.Bl -tag -width Er
+.It Bq Er EINVAL
+At least one of the values of
+.Ar cap_p ,
+.Ar ncap ,
+.Ar flag
+and
+.Ar value ,
+or at least one of the first
+.Ar ncap
+elements in
+.Ar caps ,
+does not refer to the corresponding entity.
+.Pp
+The resulting capability state identified by
+.Ar cap_p
+violates one or more implementation restrictions.

+.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
+.Fx
+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.
