LIBRARY
     Standard C Library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS
     ##include <>
     ##include <>

     int
     aclgetpermset(aclentryt entryd, aclpermsett *permsetp);

DESCRIPTION
     The aclgetpermset() function is a POSIX.1e call that returns via
     permsetp a descriptor to the permission set in the ACL entry entryd.
     Subsequent operations using the returned permission set operate on the
     permission set within the ACL entry.

RETURN VALUES
     The aclgetpermset() function returns the value 0 if successful; other-
     wise the value -1 is returned and the global variable errno is set to
     indicate the error.

ERORS
     The aclgetpermset() function fails if:

     [EINVAL]           Argument entryd is not a valid descriptor for an ACL
                        entry.
