NAME

SYNOPSIS
#include <unistd.h>
pid_t getpgid(pid_t pid);
DESCRIPTION
The getpgid() function shall return the process group ID of the process whose pro-
cess ID is equal to pid. If pid is equal to 0, getpgid() shall return the process
group ID of the calling process.
RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, getpgid() shall return a process group ID. Otherwise,
it shall return (pid_t)-1 and set errno to indicate the error.
ERRORS
The getpgid() function shall fail if:
EPERM The process whose process ID is equal to pid is not in the same session as
the calling process, and the implementation does not allow access to the
process group ID of that process from the calling process.
ESRCH There is no process with a process ID equal to pid.
The getpgid() function may fail if:
EINVAL The value of the pid argument is invalid.
