uid_t uid,
gid_t gid,
mode_t mode);
DESCRIPTION
The
acl_strip() function removes all ACLs from a file and replaces
them with a trivial ACL based on the
mode argument. After replacing
the ACL, the owner and group of the file are set to the values
specified by the
uid and
gid arguments.
RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion,
acl_strip() returns 0. Otherwise it
returns -1 and sets
errno to indicate the error.

acl_strip() function will fail if:
EACCES Search permission is denied on a component of the

gid argument is out of range.
EIO A disk I/O error has occurred while storing or
retrieving the ACL.
ELOOP A loop exists in symbolic links encountered during

ENAMETOOLONG The length of the
path argument exceeds {
