This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual. The Linux implementation of this interface

Application Usage

       None.

Description

       The  getsid() function shall obtain the process group ID of the process that is the session leader of the
       process specified by pid.  If pid is (pid_t)0, it specifies the calling process.

Errors

       The getsid() function shall fail if:

       EPERM  The  process  specified  by  pid  is  not  in  the  same  session  as the calling process, and the
              implementation does not allow access to the process group ID of the session leader of that process
              from the calling process.

       ESRCH  There is no process with a process ID equal to pid.

       Thefollowingsectionsareinformative.

Examples

Future Directions

       None.

Name

       getsid — get the process group ID of a session leader

Prolog

       This  manual  page  is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The Linux implementation of this interface
       may differ (consult the corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the  interface
       may not be implemented on Linux.

Rationale

       None.

Return Value

       Upon successful completion, getsid() shall return the process group ID  of  the  session  leader  of  the
       specified process. Otherwise, it shall return -1 and set errno to indicate the error.
