NAME

acl_totext, acl_fromtext - convert internal representation  to or from external representation
 

SYNOPSIS

cc [ flag... ] file... -lsec [ library... ]
#include <sys/acl.h>

char *acl_totext(acl_t *aclp, int flags);

int acl_fromtext(char *acltextp, acl_t **aclp);

DESCRIPTION

The acl_totext() function converts an internal ACL representation pointed to by aclp into an external ACL representation. The memory for the external text string is obtained using malloc(3C). The caller is responsible for freeing the memory upon completion.

The format of the external ACL is controlled by the flags argument. Values for flags are constructed by a bitwise-inclusive-OR of flags from the following list, defined in <sys/acl.h>.

ACL_COMPACT_FMT

For NFSv4 ACLs, the ACL entries will be formatted using the compact ACL format detailed in ls(1) for the -V option.

ACL_APPEND_ID

Append the uid or gid for additional user or group entries. This flag is used to construt ACL entries in a manner that is suitable for archive utilities such as tar(1). When the ACL is translated from the external format to internal representation using acl_fromtext(), the appended ID will be used to populate the uid or gid field of the ACL entry when the user or group name does not exist on the host system. The appended id will be ignored when the user or group name does exist on the system.

ACL_SID_FMT

For NFSv4 ACLs, the ACL entries for user or group entries will use the usersid or groupsid format when the "id" field in the ACL entry is an ephemeral uid or gid. The raw sid format will only be used when the "id" cannot be resolved to a windows name.

The acl_fromtext() function converts an external ACL representation pointed to by acltextp into an internal ACL representation. The memory for the list of ACL entries is obtained using malloc(3C). The caller is responsible for freeing the memory upon completion. Depending on type of ACLs a file system supports, one of two external external representations are possible. For POSIX draft file systems such as ufs, the external representation is described in acltotext(3SEC). The external ACL representation For NFSv4-style ACLs is detailed as follows.

Each acl_entry contains one ACL entry. The external representation of an ACL entry contains three, four or five colon separated fields. The first field contains the ACL entry type. The entry type keywords are defined as:

everyone@

This ACL entry specifies the access granted to any user or group that does not match any previous ACL entry.

group

This ACL entry with a GID specifies the access granted to a additional group of the object.

group@

This ACL entry with no GID specified in the ACL entry field specifies the access granted to the owning group of the object.

groupsid

This ACL entry with a SID or Windows name specifies the access granted to a Windows group. This type of entry is for a CIFS server created file.

owner@

This ACL entry with no UID specified in the ACL entry field specifies the access granted to the owner of the object.

sid

This ACL entry with a SID or Windows name when the entry could be either a group or a user.

user

This ACL entry with a UID specifies the access granted to a additional user of the object.

usersid

This ACL entry with a SID or Windows name specifies the access granted to a Windows user. This type of entry is for a CIFS server created file.

The second field contains the ACL entry ID, and is used only for user or group ACL entries. This field is not used for owner@, group@, or everyone@ entries.

uid

This field contains a user-name or user-ID. If the user-name cannot be resolved to a UID, then the entry is assumed to be a numeric UID.

gid

This field contains a group-name or group-ID. If the group-name can't be resolved to a GID, then the entry is assumed to be a numeric GID.

The third field contains the discretionary access permissions. The format of the permissions depends on whether ACL_COMPACT_FMT is specified. When the flags field does not request ACL_COMPACT_FMT, the following format is used with a forward slash (/) separating the permissions.

add_file

Add a file to a directory.

add_subdirectory

Add a subdirectory.

append

Append data.

delete

Delete.

delete_child

Delete child.

execute

Execute permission.

list_directory

List a directory.

read_acl

Read ACL.

read_data

Read permission.

read_attributes

Read attributes.

read_xattr

Read named attributes.

synchronize

Synchronize.

write_acl

Write ACL.

write_attributes

Write attributes.

write_data

Write permission.

write_owner

Write owner.

write_xattr

Write named attributes.

This format allows permissions to be specified as, for example: read_data/read_xattr/read_attributes.

When ACL_COMPACT_FMT is specified, the permissions consist of 14 unique letters. A hyphen (-) character is used to indicate that the permission at that position is not specified.

a

read attributes

A

write attributes

c

read ACL

C

write ACL

d

delete

D

delete child

o

write owner

p

append

r

read_data

R

read named attributes

s

synchronize

w

write_data

W

write named attributes

x

execute

This format allows compact permissions to be represented as, for example: rw--d-a-------

The fourth field is optional when ACL_COMPACT_FMT is not specified, in which case the field will be present only when the ACL entry has inheritance flags set. The following is the list of inheritance flags separated by a slash (/) character.

dir_inherit

ACE_DIRECTORY_INHERIT_ACE

file_inherit

ACE_FILE_INHERIT_ACE

inherit_only

ACE_INHERIT_ONLY_ACE

no_propagate

ACE_NO_PROPAGATE_INHERIT_ACE

When ACL_COMPACT_FMT is specified the inheritance will always be present and is represented as positional arguments. A hyphen (-) character is used to indicate that the inheritance flag at that position is not specified.

d

dir_inherit

f

file_inherit

F

failed access (not currently supported)

i

inherit_only

n

no_propagate

S

successful access (not currently supported)

The fifth field contains the type of the ACE (allow or deny):

allow

The mask specified in field three should be allowed.

deny

The mask specified in field three should be denied.

RETURN VALUES

Upon successful completion, the acl_totext() function returns a pointer to a text string. Otherwise, it returns NULL.

Upon successful completion, the acl_fromtext() function returns 0. Otherwise, the return value is set to one of the following:

EACL_FIELD_NOT_BLANK

A field that should be blank is not blank.

EACL_FLAGS_ERROR

An invalid ACL flag was specified.

EACL_INHERIT_ERROR

An invalid inheritance field was specified.

EACL_INVALID_ACCESS_TYPE

An invalid access type was specified.

EACL_INVALID_STR

The string is NULL.

EACL_INVALID_USER_GROUP

The required user or group name not found.

EACL_MISSING_FIELDS

The ACL needs more fields to be specified.

EACL_PERM_MASK_ERROR

The permission mask is invalid.

EACL_UNKNOWN_DATA

Unknown data was found in the ACL.

EXAMPLES

owner@:read_acl:allow,user:tom:read_data:file_inherit/inherit_only:deny

Example 2 Examples of permissions when ACL_COMPACT_FMT is specified.
