acl_copy_entry(3)
NAME
  acl_copy_entry - Copies an ACL entry

SYNOPSIS
  #include <sys/acl.h>

  int acl_copy_entry(
	  acl_entry_t src_d,
	  acl_entry_t dest_d );

LIBRARY
  Security Library (libpacl.a)

PARAMETERS
  src_d
      Specifies the working storage internal representation ACL entry to
      copy.

  dest_d
      Specifies the location to copy the working storage internal
      representation ACL entry to.

DESCRIPTION
  NOTE:	 This function is based on Draft 13 of the POSIX P1003.6 standard.

  The acl_copy_entry() function copies the contents of the individual ACL
  entry indicated by the src_d parameter to the individual ACL entry
  indicated by the dest_d parameter. Any ACL descriptor referring to the ACL
  entries in either parameter will still refer to the same ACL entries. This
  function overwrites the contents of the ACL entry indicated by the dest_d
  parameter.

RETURN VALUES
  Upon successful completion, the acl_copy_entry() function returns a value
  of 0 (zero). Otherwise, a value of -1 is returned, and errno is set to
  indicate the error.

ERRORS
  If the following condition occurs, the acl_copy_entry() function sets errno
  to the corresponding value:

  [EINVAL]
      The src_d parameter or the dest_d parameter does not refer to a valid
      ACL entry.
