NAME¶
acl_delete_def_file
—
delete a default ACL by filename
LIBRARY¶
Linux Access Control Lists library (libacl, -lacl).
SYNOPSIS¶
#include
<sys/types.h>
#include
<sys/acl.h>
int
acl_delete_def_file
(
const
char *path_p);
DESCRIPTION¶
The
acl_delete_def_file
() function deletes a
default ACL from the directory whose pathname is pointed to by the argument
path_p.
The effective user ID of the process must match the owner of the file or
directory or the process must have the CAP_FOWNER capability for the request
to succeed.
If the argument
path_p is not a directory, then
the function fails. It is no error if the directory whose pathname is pointed
to by the argument
path_p does not have a
default ACL.
RETURN VALUE¶
The
acl_delete_def_file
() function returns
the value 0 if successful; otherwise the value -1 is returned
and the global variable
errno is set to
indicate the error.
ERRORS¶
If any of the following conditions occur, the
acl_delete_def_file
() function returns the
value
-1
and and sets
errno to the corresponding value:
- [
EINVAL
]
- The file referred to by path_p is not a
directory.
- [
ENOTSUP
]
- The file system on which the file identified by
path_p is located does not support ACLs,
or ACLs are disabled.
- [
EPERM
]
- The process does not have appropriate privilege to perform the operation
to delete the default ACL.
- [
EROFS
]
- This function requires modification of a file system which is currently
read-only.
