<h4><a name="tag_03_667_03"></a>DESCRIPTION</h4>
|
||||
|
||||
<blockquote>
|
||||
<p>The <i>setsid</i>() function shall create a new session, if the calling process is not a process group leader. Upon return the
|
||||
calling process shall be the session leader of this new session, shall be the process group leader of a new process group, and
|
||||
shall have no controlling terminal. The process group ID of the calling process shall be set equal to the process ID of the calling
|
||||
process. The calling process shall be the only process in the new process group and the only process in the new session.</p>
|
||||
</blockquote>
|
||||
|
||||
<h4><a name="tag_03_667_04"></a>RETURN VALUE</h4>
|
||||
|
||||
<blockquote>
|
||||
<p>Upon successful completion, <i>setsid</i>() shall return the value of the new process group ID of the calling process.
|
||||
Otherwise, it shall return (<b>pid_t</b>)-1 and set <i>errno</i> to indicate the error.</p>

<dl compact>
|

<dt>[EPERM]</dt>
|
||||
|
||||
<dd>The calling process is already a process group leader, or the process group ID of a process other than the calling process

matches the process ID of the calling process.</dd>

|

<h4><a name="tag_03_667_08"></a>RATIONALE</h4>
|
||||
|
||||
<blockquote>
|
||||
<p>The <i>setsid</i>() function is similar to the <a href="../functions/setpgrp.html"><i>setpgrp</i>()</a> function of System V.
|
||||
System V, without job control, groups processes into process groups and creates new process groups via <a href=
|
||||
"../functions/setpgrp.html"><i>setpgrp</i>()</a>; only one process group may be part of a login session.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Job control allows multiple process groups within a login session. In order to limit job control actions so that they can only
|
||||
affect processes in the same login session, this volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 adds the concept of a session that is
|
||||
created via <i>setsid</i>(). The <i>setsid</i>() function also creates the initial process group contained in the session.
|
||||
Additional process groups can be created via the <a href="../functions/setpgid.html"><i>setpgid</i>()</a> function. A System V
|
||||
process group would correspond to a POSIX System Interfaces session containing a single POSIX process group. Note that this
|
||||
function requires that the calling process not be a process group leader. The usual way to ensure this is true is to create a new
|
||||
process with <a href="../functions/fork.html"><i>fork</i>()</a> and have it call <i>setsid</i>(). The <a href=
|
||||
"../functions/fork.html"><i>fork</i>()</a> function guarantees that the process ID of the new process does not match any existing
|
||||
process group ID.</p>

|

<h4><a name="tag_03_667_12"></a>Issue 6</h4>
|
||||
|
||||
<blockquote>
|
||||
<p>In the SYNOPSIS, the optional include of the <a href="../basedefs/sys/types.h.html"><i><sys/types.h></i></a> header is
|
||||
removed.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The following new requirements on POSIX implementations derive from alignment with the Single UNIX Specification:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>
|
||||
<p>The requirement to include <a href="../basedefs/sys/types.h.html"><i><sys/types.h></i></a> has been removed. Although <a
|
||||
href="../basedefs/sys/types.h.html"><i><sys/types.h></i></a> was required for conforming implementations of previous POSIX
|
||||
specifications, it was not required for UNIX applications.</p>
