[Acl-devel] attr vs Glibc

[ohav chochmah]

Hello all,

I'm a bit confused, is there any difference between {,l,f}setxattr, {,l,f}getxattr, {,l,f}removexattr, {,l,f}listxattr as implemented in glibc,  the interface of which is accessible via sys/xattr.h, and the exact same functions as implemented in attr (attr/xattr.h)?    in which case should we use the latter?

thanks for clarifying.
