The perlrun man page does not explicitly state that file permisions are preserved, yet they are: $ echo ppp > a $ ls -l a -rw-rw-r-- 1 adelton adelton 4 2008-11-28 14:52 a $ chmod 600 a $ ls -l a -rw------- 1 adelton adelton 4 2008-11-28 14:52 a $ perl -i -pe 's!ppp!qqq!' a $ ls -l a -rw------- 1 adelton adelton 4 2008-11-28 14:52 a $ and strace shows that perl does an explicit chmod: open("a", O_RDONLY) = 3 ioctl(3, SNDCTL_TMR_TIMEBASE or TCGETS, 0x7fff2b869470) = -1 ENOTTY (Inappropriate ioctl for device) lseek(3, 0, SEEK_CUR) = 0 fstat(3, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0600, st_size=4, ...}) = 0 fcntl(3, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC) = 0 unlink("a") = 0 open("a", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL, 0666) = 4 ioctl(4, SNDCTL_TMR_TIMEBASE or TCGETS, 0x7fff2b869470) = -1 ENOTTY (Inappropriate ioctl for device) lseek(4, 0, SEEK_CUR) = 0 fstat(4, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0664, st_size=0, ...}) = 0 fcntl(4, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC) = 0 fstat(4, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0664, st_size=0, ...}) = 0 fchmod(4, 0100600) = 0 read(3, "ppp\n", 4096) = 4 read(3, "", 4096) = 0 write(4, "qqq\n", 4) = 4 close(4) = 0 close(3) = 0 exit_group(0) = ? So perl goes the extra mile to leave the resulting file in a state as close to the original. It should do so with ACLs and EAs as well.
