55 .Sh IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
57 support for POSIX.1e interfaces and features is still under
58 development at this time.
62 If any of the following conditions occur, the
64 function shall return -1 and set
66 to the corresponding value:
71 argument does not refer to a capability state in the working storage.
72 Search permission is denied for a component of the path prefix, or the
85 POSIX.1e is described in IEEE POSIX.1e draft 17. Discussion
86 of the draft continues on the cross-platform POSIX.1e implementation
87 mailing list. To join this list, see the
89 POSIX.1e implementation
90 page for more information.
92 Support for POSIX.1e Capabilities was developed as part of the TrustedBSD
94 POSIX.1e Capability support was introduced in
96 and development continues.
