GETRESUID(2)                                                            Linux Programmer's Manual                                                           GETRESUID(2)

NAME
       getresuid, getresgid - get real, effective, and saved user/group IDs

SYNOPSIS
       #define _GNU_SOURCE         /* See feature_test_macros(7) */
       #include <unistd.h>

       int getresuid(uid_t *ruid, uid_t *euid, uid_t *suid);
       int getresgid(gid_t *rgid, gid_t *egid, gid_t *sgid);

DESCRIPTION
       getresuid()  returns the real UID, the effective UID, and the saved set-user-ID of the calling process, in the arguments ruid, euid, and suid, respectively.  ge‐
       tresgid() performs the analogous task for the process's group IDs.

RETURN VALUE
       On success, zero is returned.  On error, -1 is returned, and errno is set to indicate the error.

ERRORS
       EFAULT One of the arguments specified an address outside the calling program's address space.

VERSIONS
       These system calls appeared on Linux starting with kernel 2.1.44.

       The prototypes are given by glibc since version 2.3.2, provided _GNU_SOURCE is defined.

CONFORMING TO
       These calls are nonstandard; they also appear on HP-UX and some of the BSDs.

NOTES
       The original Linux getresuid() and getresgid() system calls supported only 16-bit user and group IDs.  Subsequently, Linux 2.4 added  getresuid32()  and  getres‐
       gid32(), supporting 32-bit IDs.  The glibc getresuid() and getresgid() wrapper functions transparently deal with the variations across kernel versions.
