DESCRIPTION

17     The acl_copy_entry() function copies the contents of the ACL entry indi‐
18     cated by the src_d descriptor to the existing ACL entry indicated by the

20     in different ACLs.

24     wise the value -1 is returned and the global variable errno is set to
25     indicate the error.

ERRORS

28     If any of the following conditions occur, the acl_copy_entry() function
29     returns -1 and sets errno to the corresponding value:

31     [EINVAL]           The argument src_d or dest_d is not a valid descriptor
32                        for an ACL entry.

34                        The arguments src_d and dest_d reference the same ACL
