.In unistd.h
.Ft int
.Fn getresgid "gid_t *rgid" "gid_t *egid" "gid_t *sgid"
.Ft int
.Fn getresuid "uid_t *ruid" "uid_t *euid" "uid_t *suid"

.Ft int
.Fn setresuid "uid_t ruid" "uid_t euid" "uid_t suid"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Fn setresuid
function sets the real,
effective and saved user IDs of the current process.
The analogous
.Fn setresgid
sets the real, effective and saved group IDs.
.Pp
Privileged processes may set these IDs to arbitrary values.
Unprivileged processes are restricted
in that each of the new IDs must match one of the current IDs.
.Pp
Passing \-1 as an argument causes the corresponding value
to remain unchanged.
.Pp
The
.Fn getresgid
and
.Fn getresuid
calls retrieve the real, effective, and saved group and user IDs of
the current process, respectively.
.Sh RETURN VALUES
.Rv -std
.Sh ERRORS
.Bl -tag -width Er
.It Bq Er EPERM
The calling process was not privileged and tried to change one or
more IDs to a value which was not the current real ID, the current
effective ID nor the current saved ID.
.It Bq Er EFAULT
An address passed to
.Fn getresgid
or
.Fn getresuid
was invalid.

.Sh STANDARDS

specification.
While they are not completely portable, they are the least ambiguous way to
manage user and group IDs.
.Sh HISTORY
These functions first appeared in HP-UX.
