Linux Access Control Lists library (libacl, -lacl).


SYNOPSIS

     int
     acl_get_tag_type(acl_entry_t entry_d, acl_tag_t *tag_type_p)


DESCRIPTION

     The acl_get_tag_type() function assigns to the value pointed to by
     tag_type_p the tag type for the ACL entry indicated by the argument
     entry_d.

     The argument entry_d and any other ACL entry descriptors that refer to
     entries in the same ACL continue to refer to those entries. The order of
     all existing entries in the ACL remain unchanged.


RETURN VALUE

     The acl_get_tag_type() function returns the value 0 if successful; other­
     wise the value -1 is returned and the global variable errno is set to in­
     dicate the error.


ERRORS

     If any of the following conditions occur, the acl_get_tag_type() function
     returns -1 and sets errno to the corresponding value:

     [EINVAL]      The argument entry_d is not a valid descriptor for an ACL
                   entry.


STANDARDS

     IEEE Std 1003.1e draft 17 ("POSIX.1e", abandoned)
