36.Sh NAME
37.Nm getfacl
38.Nd get ACL information
39.Sh SYNOPSIS
40.Nm
41.Op Fl dhinqv
42.Op Ar
43.Sh DESCRIPTION
44The
45.Nm
46utility writes discretionary access control information associated with
47the specified file(s) to standard output.
48If the
49.Xr getconf 1
50utility indicates that
51.Brq Va _POSIX_ACL_EXTENDED
52is not in effect for a
53.Ar file
54then the standard discretionary access permissions are interpreted as
55an ACL containing only the required ACL entries.
56.Pp
57The following option is available:
58.Bl -tag -width indent
59.It Fl d
60The operation applies to the default ACL of a directory instead of the
61access ACL.
62An error is generated if a default ACL cannot be associated with
63.Ar file .
64This option is not valid for NFSv4 ACLs.
65.It Fl h
66If the target of the operation is a symbolic link, return the ACL from
67the symbolic link itself rather than following the link.
68.It Fl i
69For NFSv4 ACLs, append numerical ID at the end of each entry containing
70user or group name.
71Ignored for POSIX.1e ACLs.
72.It Fl n
73Display user and group IDs numerically rather than converting to
74a user or group name.
75Ignored for POSIX.1e ACLs.
76.It Fl q
77Do not write commented information about file name and ownership.
78This is
79useful when dealing with filenames with unprintable characters.
80.It Fl v
81For NFSv4 ACLs, display access mask and flags in a verbose form.
82Ignored for POSIX.1e ACLs.
83.El
84.Pp
85The following operand is available:
86.Bl -tag -width indent
87.It Ar file
88A pathname of a file whose ACL shall be retrieved.
89If
90.Ar file
91is not specified, or a
92.Ar file
93is specified as
94.Fl ,
95then
96.Nm
97reads a list of pathnames, each terminated by one newline character,
98from the standard input.
99.El
100.Pp
101For an explanation of the ACL syntax, see the
102.Xr setfacl 1
103manual page.

124.Sh STANDARDS
125The
126.Nm
127utility is expected to be
128.Tn IEEE
129Std 1003.2c compliant.
130.Sh HISTORY
131Extended Attribute and Access Control List support was developed as part
132of the
133.Tn TrustedBSD
