ACL_ADD_PERM(3)		 BSD Library Functions Manual	       ACL_ADD_PERM(3)

NAME
     acl_add_perm -- add permissions to	a permission set

LIBRARY
     Standard C	Library	(libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS
     #include <sys/types.h>
     #include <sys/acl.h>

     int
     acl_add_perm(acl_permset_t	permset_d, acl_perm_t perm);

DESCRIPTION
     The acl_add_perm()	function is a POSIX.1e call that adds the permission
     contained in perm to the permission set permset_d.

     Note: it is not considered	an error to attempt to add permissions that
     already exist in the permission set.

     For POSIX.1e ACLs,	valid values are:

	ACL_EXECUTE		 Execute permission
	ACL_WRITE		 Write permission
	ACL_READ		 Read permission

     For NFSv4 ACLs, valid values are:

	ACL_READ_DATA		 Read permission
	ACL_LIST_DIRECTORY	 Same as ACL_READ_DATA
	ACL_WRITE_DATA		 Write permission, or permission to create
				 files
	ACL_ADD_FILE		 Same as ACL_READ_DATA
	ACL_APPEND_DATA		 Permission to create directories.  Ignored
				 for files
	ACL_ADD_SUBDIRECTORY	 Same as ACL_APPEND_DATA
	ACL_READ_NAMED_ATTRS	 Ignored
	ACL_WRITE_NAMED_ATTRS	 Ignored
	ACL_EXECUTE		 Execute permission
	ACL_DELETE_CHILD	 Permission to delete files and	subdirectories
	ACL_READ_ATTRIBUTES	 Permission to read basic attributes
	ACL_WRITE_ATTRIBUTES	 Permission to change basic attributes
	ACL_DELETE		 Permission to delete the object this ACL is
				 placed	on
	ACL_READ_ACL		 Permission to read ACL
	ACL_WRITE_ACL		 Permission to change the ACL and file mode
	ACL_SYNCHRONIZE		 Ignored

     Calling acl_add_perm() with perm equal to ACL_WRITE or ACL_READ brands
     the ACL as	POSIX.	Calling	it with	ACL_READ_DATA, ACL_LIST_DIRECTORY,
     ACL_WRITE_DATA, ACL_ADD_FILE, ACL_APPEND_DATA, ACL_ADD_SUBDIRECTORY,
     ACL_READ_NAMED_ATTRS, ACL_WRITE_NAMED_ATTRS, ACL_DELETE_CHILD,
     ACL_READ_ATTRIBUTES, ACL_WRITE_ATTRIBUTES,	ACL_DELETE, ACL_READ_ACL,
     ACL_WRITE_ACL or ACL_SYNCHRONIZE brands the ACL as	NFSv4.

RETURN VALUES
     The acl_add_perm()	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
     The acl_add_perm()	function fails if:

     [EINVAL]		Argument permset_d is not a valid descriptor for a
			permission set within an ACL entry.  Argument perm
			does not contain a valid acl_perm_t value.  ACL	is al-
			ready branded differently.
