This option may be used with the major and minor number options (3 and 4)
when a streams device is being created. An error is returned if this option is
specified with any device file category other than STREAMS.
The maximum size of this option is 8 characters (from the NMMGR link screen).
A character placed in the first element designates the delimiter used to search
to the end of the character array. For example:
%linkname% (% is the delimiter)
6 BA Access Control Definition (ACD):
Passes a byte array defining the access control definition (ACD) to be attached
to the streams or FIFO file. The array has a length of 1 to 279 bytes. This option
expects a trailing carriage return character as a delimiter. For example:
(X:@.@;R,W:JOE.SYS;RACD:SUE.SMITH)<cr>
The <cr> is the carriage return character (13,0x0D).
An error is returned if this item is specified when creating a device_link file.
