DESCRIPTION

15       The  explain_acl_from_text_or_die  function  is  used   to   call   the
16       acl_from_text(3) system call. On failure an explanation will be printed
17       to stderr, obtained from  the  explain_acl_from_text(3)  function,  and
18       then the process terminates by calling exit(EXIT_FAILURE).
19
20       The   explain_acl_from_text_on_error  function  is  used  to  call  the
21       acl_from_text(3) system call. On failure an explanation will be printed
22       to  stderr,  obtained  from  the explain_acl_from_text(3) function, but
23       still returns to the caller.
24
25       text    The text, exactly as to be passed to the acl_from_text(3)  sys‐
26               tem call.

31       tion and exits, it does not return.

34       return by the wrapped acl_from_text(3) system call.
