acl_size(3)							   acl_size(3)

NAME
       acl_size	 - Determines the size of the contiguous, persistent represen‐
       tation of the given ACL

SYNOPSIS
       #include <sys/acl.h>

       ssize_t acl_size(
	       acl_t acl_d );

LIBRARY
       Security Library (libpacl.a)

PARAMETERS
       The working storage internal representation of an ACL that the contigu‐
       ous, persistent representation size is desired on.

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

       Given an ACL, the acl_size() function determines the  number  of	 bytes
       required	 for  storing  the  ACL if converted to contiguous, persistent
       representation using acl_copy_ext().

RETURN VALUES
       Upon successful completion, the acl_size function returns the  size  of
       the  ACL.   Otherwise,  a  value	 of -1 is returned and errno is set to
       indicate the error.

ERRORS
       If any of the following conditions occur, the acl_size() function  sets
       errno to the corresponding value:

       The acl_d argument does not point to an ACL structure.
