How can I find all files with some extended ACLs set, i.e. those with a little + at the end of the permission flags shown by ls -l.
I could not find a corresponding flag for find. My naive approach would be a find combined with ls -l and a grep. But I don't think this is nice.
Does someone have an idea?
getfacl can dump ACLs recursively, and it has a --skip-base option for ignoring files without ACLs.
getfacl -R -s -p /directory | sed -n 's/^# file: //p'
Perl version:
getfacl -R -p -s / | perl -wn -e ' if (/^# file/) { s|^# file: /||; print; }'
-R: List the ACLs of all files and directories recursively.
-s: Skip files that only have the base ACL entries (owner, group, others).
getfacl -Rs .
getfacl --recursive --skip-base .
How I solved it:
getfacl --recursive --skip-base / 2>/dev/null | grep "file:" | cut -d" " -f3 | awk '{print "/"$1}'
returns:
/dev/snd/seq
/dev/snd/timer
/dev/dri/card0
I found this googling the opposite; to find files with no ACLs set. This is what I ended up with (in case some other googler finds it)
ls --color=auto -lR | grep -v "\+ " | grep -v "^[.,a-z,1-9]" | grep -v "^$"
Apparently ls -R is faster than find (I have a kagillion files and each find command is taking me 2 hours).
