<para > <function > sd_bus_creds_get_pid()</function> will retrieve

the PID (process identifier). Similarly,
2015-04-29 22:44:55 +03:00
<function > sd_bus_creds_get_ppid()</function> will retrieve the
parent PID. Note that PID 1 has no parent process, in which case
-ENXIO is returned.</para>

2014-10-18 18:20:24 +04:00

TID (thread identifier).</para>

<para > <function > sd_bus_creds_get_uid()</function> will retrieve

the numeric UID (user identifier). Similarly,
2015-04-29 22:44:55 +03:00
<function > sd_bus_creds_get_euid()</function> returns the effective
UID, <function > sd_bus_creds_get_suid()</function> the saved UID

UID.</para>

<para > <function > sd_bus_creds_get_gid()</function> will retrieve the
2014-08-03 09:11:37 +04:00
numeric GID (group identifier). Similarly,
2015-04-29 22:44:55 +03:00
<function > sd_bus_creds_get_egid()</function> returns the effective
GID, <function > sd_bus_creds_get_sgid()</function> the saved GID
and <function > sd_bus_creds_get_fsgid()</function> the file system
GID.</para>
<para > <function > sd_bus_creds_get_supplementary_gids()</function>
will retrieve the supplementary GIDs list.</para>

2014-10-18 18:20:24 +04:00
<para > <function > sd_bus_creds_get_comm()</function> will retrieve the
2014-02-17 05:49:45 +04:00
comm field (truncated name of the executable, as stored in
2014-01-04 09:08:50 +04:00
<filename > /proc/<replaceable > pid</replaceable> /comm</filename> ).
</para>
2014-10-18 18:20:24 +04:00
<para > <function > sd_bus_creds_get_tid_comm()</function> will retrieve
2014-01-04 09:08:50 +04:00
the comm field of the thread (as stored in
<filename > /proc/<replaceable > pid</replaceable> /task/<replaceable > tid</replaceable> /comm</filename> ).
</para>
2019-06-24 16:30:10 +03:00
<para > <function > sd_bus_creds_get_exe()</function> will retrieve the path to the program executable (as
stored in the <filename > /proc/<replaceable > pid</replaceable> /exe</filename> link, but with the <literal >
(deleted)</literal> suffix removed). Note that kernel threads do not have an executable path, in which
case -ENXIO is returned. Note that this property should not be used for more than explanatory
information, in particular it should not be used for security-relevant decisions. That's because the
executable might have been replaced or removed by the time the value can be processed. Moreover, the
kernel exports this information in an ambiguous way (i.e. a deleted executable cannot be safely
2020-07-06 20:46:01 +03:00
distinguished from one whose name suffix is <literal > (deleted)</literal> ).</para>

2015-04-29 22:44:55 +03:00
<para > <function > sd_bus_creds_get_cmdline()</function> will
retrieve an array of command line arguments (as stored in
<filename > /proc/<replaceable > pid</replaceable> /cmdline</filename> ). Note
that kernel threads do not have a command line, in which case
-ENXIO is returned.</para>

man: add a mapping for external manpages
It is annoying when we have dead links on fd.o.
Add project='man-pages|die-net|archlinux' to <citerefentry>-ies.
In generated html, add external links to
http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man, http://linux.die.net/man/,
https://www.archlinux.org/.
By default, pages in sections 2 and 4 go to man7, since Michael
Kerrisk is the autorative source on kernel related stuff.
The rest of links goes to linux.die.net, because they have the
manpages.
Except for the pacman stuff, since it seems to be only available from
archlinux.org.
Poor gummiboot gets no link, because gummitboot(8) ain't to be found
on the net. According to common wisdom, that would mean that it does
not exist. But I have seen Kay using it, so I know it does, and
deserves to be found. Can somebody be nice and put it up somewhere?
