DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

       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.

       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.

       If the following condition  occurs,  the  acl_copy_entry()
       function  sets errno to the corresponding value: The src_d
       parameter or the dest_d parameter  does  not  refer  to  a
       valid ACL entry.
