explain_setsid_or_die - sets process group ID and report errors

Description

       The  explain_setsid_or_die  function is used to call the setsid(2) system call. On failure an explanation
       will be printed to stderr, obtained from the explain_setsid(3) function, and then the process  terminates
       by calling exit(EXIT_FAILURE).

       The explain_setsid_on_error function is used to call the setsid(2) system call. On failure an explanation
       will be printed to stderr, obtained from the explain_setsid(3) function, but still returns to the caller.

Example

       The explain_setsid_or_die function is intended to be used in a fashion similar to the following example:
              explain_setsid_or_die();

Name

       explain_setsid_or_die - sets process group ID and report errors

Return Value

       The  explain_setsid_or_die  function  only  returns  on  success,  see setsid(2) for more information. On
       failure, prints an explanation and exits, it does not return.

       The explain_setsid_on_error function always returns the value return  by  the  wrapped  setsid(2)  system
       call.
