   getgroups.3p    ( 3 )

получить дополнительные идентификаторы группы (get supplementary group IDs)

Пролог (Prolog)

This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The
       Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult the
       corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior),
       or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.

Имя (Name)

getgroups — get supplementary group IDs

Синопсис (Synopsis)

#include <unistd.h>

int getgroups(int gidsetsize, gid_t grouplist[]);


Описание (Description)

The getgroups() function shall fill in the array grouplist with
       the current supplementary group IDs of the calling process. It is
       implementation-defined whether getgroups() also returns the
       effective group ID in the grouplist array.

The gidsetsize argument specifies the number of elements in the array grouplist. The actual number of group IDs stored in the array shall be returned. The values of array entries with indices greater than or equal to the value returned are undefined.

If gidsetsize is 0, getgroups() shall return the number of group IDs that it would otherwise return without modifying the array pointed to by grouplist.

If the effective group ID of the process is returned with the supplementary group IDs, the value returned shall always be greater than or equal to one and less than or equal to the value of {NGROUPS_MAX}+1.


Возвращаемое значение (Return value)

Upon successful completion, the number of supplementary group IDs
       shall be returned. A return value of -1 indicates failure and
       errno shall be set to indicate the error.

Ошибки (Error)

The getgroups() function shall fail if:

EINVAL The gidsetsize argument is non-zero and less than the number of group IDs that would have been returned.

The following sections are informative.


Примеры (Examples)

Getting the Supplementary Group IDs of the Calling Process
       The following example places the current supplementary group IDs
       of the calling process into the group array.

#include <sys/types.h> #include <unistd.h> ... gid_t *group; int nogroups; long ngroups_max;

ngroups_max = sysconf(_SC_NGROUPS_MAX) + 1; group = (gid_t *)malloc(ngroups_max *sizeof(gid_t));

ngroups = getgroups(ngroups_max, group);


Использование в приложениях (Application usage)

None.

Обоснование (Rationale)

The related function setgroups() is a privileged operation and
       therefore is not covered by this volume of POSIX.1‐2017.

As implied by the definition of supplementary groups, the effective group ID may appear in the array returned by getgroups() or it may be returned only by getegid(). Duplication may exist, but the application needs to call getegid() to be sure of getting all of the information. Various implementation variations and administrative sequences cause the set of groups appearing in the result of getgroups() to vary in order and as to whether the effective group ID is included, even when the set of groups is the same (in the mathematical sense of ``set''). (The history of a process and its parents could affect the details of the result.)

Application developers should note that {NGROUPS_MAX} is not necessarily a constant on all implementations.


Будущие направления (Future directions)
