If \fIrgid\fR is \(mi1, the real group ID is not +changed; if \fIegid\fR is \(mi1, the effective group ID is not changed. The +real and effective group IDs may be set to different values in the same call. +.sp +.LP +If the {\fBPRIV_PROC_SETID\fR} privilege is asserted in the effective set of +the calling process, the real group ID and the effective group ID can be set to +any legal value. +.sp +.LP +If the {\fBPRIV_PROC_SETID\fR} privilege is not asserted in the effective set +of the calling process, either the real group ID can be set to the saved +set-group-ID from \fBexecve\fR(2), or the effective group ID can either be set +to the saved set-group-ID or the real group ID. +.sp +.LP +In either case, if the real group ID is being changed (that is, if \fIrgid\fR +is not \(mi1), or the effective group ID is being changed to a value not equal +to the real group ID, the saved set-group-ID is set equal to the new effective +group ID. +.SH RETURN VALUES +.sp +.LP +Upon successful completion, 0 is returned. Otherwise, \(mi1 is returned, +\fBerrno\fR is set to indicate the error, and neither of the group IDs will be +changed. +.SH ERRORS +.sp +.LP +The \fBsetregid()\fR function will fail if: +.sp +.ne 2 +.mk +.na +\fB\fBEINVAL\fR\fR +.ad +.RS 10n +.rt +The value of \fIrgid\fR or \fIegid\fR is less than 0 or greater than +\fBUID_MAX\fR (defined in <\fBlimits.h\fR>). +.RE + +.sp +.ne 2 +.mk +.na +\fB\fBEPERM\fR\fR +.ad +.RS 10n +.rt +The {\fBPRIV_PROC_SETID\fR} privilege is not asserted in the effective set of +the calling processes and a change was specified other than changing the real +group \fBID\fR to the saved set-group-\fBID\fR or changing the effective group +\fBID\fR to the real group \fBID\fR or the saved group ID. +.RE + +.SH USAGE +.sp +.LP +If a set-group-\fBID\fR process sets its effective group \fBID\fR to its real +group \fBID\fR, it can still set its effective group \fBID\fR back to the saved +set-group-\fBID\fR. +.SH ATTRIBUTES +.sp +.LP +See \fBattributes\fR(5) for descriptions of the following attributes: +.sp + +.sp +.TS +tab() box; +cw(2.75i) |cw(2.75i) +lw(2.75i) |lw(2.75i) +. +ATTRIBUTE TYPEATTRIBUTE VALUE +_ +Interface StabilityStandard +.TE + +.SH SEE ALSO +.sp +.LP +\fBexecve\fR(2), \fBgetgid\fR(2), \fBsetreuid\fR(2), \fBsetuid\fR(2), +\fBattributes\fR(5), \fBprivileges\fR(5), \fBstandards\fR(5) |
