DESCRIPTION
getsid(0)
returns the session ID of the calling process. getsid(p) returns the session
ID of the process with process ID p. (The session ID of a
process is the process group ID of the session leader.)
RETURN VALUE
On success, a session ID is returned. On error,
(pid_t) −1 will
be returned, and errno is set
appropriately.
ERRORS
- EPERM
-
A process with process ID
pexists, but it is not in the same session as the calling process, and the implementation considers this an error. - ESRCH
-
No process with process ID
pwas found.
