explain_getgroups_or_die(3) Library Functions Manual explain_getgroups_or_die(3) NAME explain_getgroups_or_die - get supplementary group IDs and report errors SYNOPSIS #include <libexplain/getgroups.h> void explain_getgroups_or_die(int data_size, gid_t *data); int explain_getgroups_on_error(int data_size, gid_t *data); DESCRIPTION The explain_getgroups_or_die function is used to call the getgroups(2) sys- tem call. On failure an explanation will be printed to stderr, obtained from the explain_getgroups(3) function, and then the process terminates by calling exit(EXIT_FAILURE). The explain_getgroups_on_error function is used to call the getgroups(2) system call. On failure an explanation will be printed to stderr, obtained from the explain_getgroups(3) function, but still returns to the caller. data_size The data_size, exactly as to be passed to the getgroups(2) system call. data The data, exactly as to be passed to the getgroups(2) system call. RETURN VALUE The explain_getgroups_or_die function only returns on success, see get- groups(2) for more information. On failure, prints an explanation and ex- its, it does not return. The explain_getgroups_on_error function always returns the value return by the wrapped getgroups(2) system call.
