acl_to_text - Converts an ACL to an ASCII string
#include <sys/acl.h>
char * acl_to_text(
acl_t acl_d
ssize_t *len_p);
Designates the working storage internal representation of an ACL to convert to text external representation. Pointer to location to hold the length of the returned string or NULL.
NOTE: This function is based on Draft 13 of the POSIX P1003.6 standard. The function may change as the P1003.6 standard is finalized.
Given an ACL the acl_to_text() function converts it into a NULL terminated ASCII character string. The acl_to_text() function allocates any memory necessary and places the length of the string returned at len_p.
Upon successful completion, the acl_to_text() function returns an address pointing to the text external representation of the ACL. Otherwise, a value of NULL is returned and errno is set to indicate the error.
If any of the following conditions occur, the acl_to_text() function sets errno to the corresponding value:
The argument acl_d is not in a recognized format. The argument acl_d contains one or more improperly formatted ACL entries. There is not enough memory available to the process to allocate the character string.
