GFS_ACL_CALC_MASK(3)

💖 GFS_ACL_CALC_MASK(3) 💖

okay bestie so you know how Gfarm ACLs have that whole group class mask situation going on? yeah. this is the function that handles it. it's gfs_acl_calc_mask, a section 3 manual page, and it is literally here to calculate and set the file group class mask in a Gfarm ACL. main character behavior tbh. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

gfs_acl_calc_mask — calculate and set the file group class mask in a Gfarm ACL 🌸

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <gfarm/gfarm.h>

gfarm_error_t gfs_acl_calc_mask(gfarm_acl_t *acl_p);

like. that's the whole vibe. one function, one pointer, no cap. 💅

🫶 INPUT ARGUMENTS 🫶

• acl_p — Pointer of ACL structure type. that's it, that's the argument. it's giving "pointer to the ACL structure" and we love that for it. ✨

🔥 RETURN VALUES 🔥

okay so here's the tea on what it hands back to you:

• GFARM_ERR_NO_ERROR — The function terminated successfully. we ate and left no crumbs, no notes, flawless. 👑
• GFARM_ERR_NO_MEMORY — Insufficient memory was available. not enough memory bestie 😭 the vibes are immaculate but the RAM said no. 💀
• Others — An error except the above occurred. The reason is shown by gfarm_error_string(3). so if it's not one of the two above, go ask gfarm_error_string(3) what's going on, because that's the one who knows. fr fr. 🙈

ngl, if you're seeing "Others" you should probably run gfarm_error_string(3) before you start spiraling. it will tell you the reason. periodt. 💜

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

go read these next, i promise they're worth it:
