NAME¶
VOP_SETACL
—
set the access control list for a vnode
SYNOPSIS¶
#include
<sys/param.h>
#include
<sys/vnode.h>
#include
<sys/acl.h>
int
VOP_SETACL
(
struct
vnode *vp,
acl_type_t type,
struct acl
*aclp,
struct
ucred *cred,
struct thread
*td);
DESCRIPTION¶
This vnode call may be used to set the access control list (ACL) for a file or
directory.
Its arguments are:
- vp
- The vnode of the file or directory.
- type
- The type of ACL to set.
- aclp
- A pointer to an ACL structure from which to retrieve the ACL data.
- cred
- The user credentials to use in authorizing the request.
- td
- The thread setting the ACL.
The
aclp pointer may be
NULL
to indicate that the specified ACL
should be deleted.
The
cred pointer may be
NULL
to indicate that access control checks
are not to be performed, if possible. This cred setting might be used to allow
the kernel to authorize ACL changes that the active process might not be
permitted to make.
The vnode ACL interface defines the syntax, and not semantics, of file and
directory ACL interfaces. More information about ACL management in kernel may
be found in
acl(9).
LOCKS¶
The vnode will be locked on entry and should remain locked on return.
RETURN VALUES¶
If the ACL is successfully set, then zero is returned. Otherwise, an appropriate
error code is returned.
ERRORS¶
- [
EINVAL
]
- The ACL type passed is invalid for this vnode, or the ACL data is
invalid.
- [
EACCES
]
- The caller does not have the appropriate privilege.
- [
ENOMEM
]
- Sufficient memory is not available to fulfill the request.
- [
EOPNOTSUPP
]
- The file system does not support
VOP_SETACL
().
- [
ENOSPC
]
- The file system is out of space.
- [
EROFS
]
- The file system is read-only.
