NAME

       posix_spawnattr_getpgroup,  posix_spawnattr_setpgroup - get and set the
       spawn-pgroup attribute of a spawn attributes object (ADVANCED REALTIME)

SYNOPSIS

       #include <spawn.h>

       int posix_spawnattr_getpgroup(const posix_spawnattr_t *restrict attr,
              pid_t *restrict pgroup);
       int posix_spawnattr_setpgroup(posix_spawnattr_t *attr, pid_t pgroup);

DESCRIPTION

       The  posix_spawnattr_getpgroup() function shall obtain the value of the
       spawn-pgroup attribute from the attributes object referenced by attr.

       The posix_spawnattr_setpgroup() function  shall  set  the  spawn-pgroup
       attribute in an initialized attributes object referenced by attr.

       The spawn-pgroup attribute represents the process group to be joined by
       the new process image in a spawn operation (if POSIX_SPAWN_SETPGROUP is
       set in the spawn-flags attribute).  The default value of this attribute
       shall be zero.

RETURN VALUE

       Upon successful completion,  posix_spawnattr_getpgroup()  shall  return
       zero and store the value of the spawn-pgroup attribute of attr into the
       object referenced by the pgroup parameter; otherwise, an  error  number
       shall be returned to indicate the error.

       Upon  successful  completion,  posix_spawnattr_setpgroup() shall return
       zero; otherwise, an error number shall  be  returned  to  indicate  the
       error.

ERRORS

       These functions may fail if:

       EINVAL The value specified by attr is invalid.

       The posix_spawnattr_setpgroup() function may fail if:

       EINVAL The value of the attribute being set is not valid.
