.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
The
|
||
|
|
.Nm setsid
|
||
|
|
function creates a new session.
|
||
|
|
The calling process is the session leader of the new session, is the
|
||
|
|
process group leader of a new process group and has no controlling
|
||
|
|
terminal.
|
||
|
|
The calling process is the only process in either the session or the
|
||
|
|
process group.
|
||
|
|
.Pp
|
||
|
|
Upon successful completion, the
|
||
|
|
.Nm setsid
|
||
|
|
function returns the value of the process group ID of the new process
|
||
|
|
group, which is the same as the process ID of the calling process.
|
||
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
||
|
|
If an error occurs,
|
||
|
|
.Nm setsid
|
||
|
|
returns \-1 and the global variable
|

|
||
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er
