int
acl_copy_entry(acl_entry_t dest_d, acl_entry_t src_d);

The acl_copy_entry() function is a POSIX.1e call that copies the contents of ACL entry src_d to ACL entry dest_d.

The acl_copy_entry function returns the value 0 if successful; otherwise the value -1 is returned and the global variable errno is set to indicate the error.

The acl_copy_entry() function fails if:

[EINVAL]
	Argument src_d or dest_d is not a valid descriptor for an ACL entry, or arguments src_d and dest_d reference the same ACL entry.

POSIX.1e is described in IEEE POSIX.1e draft 17.

POSIX.1e support was introduced in FreeBSD 4.0 . The acl_copy_entry() function was added in FreeBSD 5.0 .

The acl_copy_entry() function was written by Chris D. Faulhaber <Mt jedgar@fxp.org>.
