explain_ge...uid_or_die(3) Library Functions Manual explain_ge...uid_or_die(3) NAME explain_getresuid_or_die - get r/e/s user IDs and report errors SYNOPSIS #include <libexplain/getresuid.h> void explain_getresuid_or_die(uid_t *ruid, uid_t *euid, uid_t *suid); int explain_getresuid_on_error(uid_t *ruid, uid_t *euid, uid_t *suid); DESCRIPTION The explain_getresuid_or_die function is used to call the getresuid(2) system call. On failure an explanation will be printed to stderr, ob- tained from the explain_getresuid(3) function, and then the process terminates by calling exit(EXIT_FAILURE). The explain_getresuid_on_error function is used to call the getre- suid(2) system call. On failure an explanation will be printed to stderr, obtained from the explain_getresuid(3) function, but still re- turns to the caller. ruid The ruid, exactly as to be passed to the getresuid(2) system call. euid The euid, exactly as to be passed to the getresuid(2) system call. suid The suid, exactly as to be passed to the getresuid(2) system call. RETURN VALUE The explain_getresuid_or_die function only returns on success, see ge- tresuid(2) for more information. On failure, prints an explanation and exits, it does not return. The explain_getresuid_on_error function always returns the value return by the wrapped getresuid(2) system call. EXAMPLE The explain_getresuid_or_die function is intended to be used in a fash- ion similar to the following example: explain_getresuid_or_die(ruid, euid, suid); SEE ALSO getresuid(2) get real, effective and saved user IDs explain_getresuid(3) explain getresuid(2) errors exit(2) terminate the calling process COPYRIGHT libexplain version 1.3 Copyright (C) 2012 Peter Miller explain_ge...uid_or_die(3)
