DESCRIPTION
vhangup() simulates a hangup on the current terminal. This call
arranges for other users to have a “clean” tty at login time.
RETURN VALUE
On success, zero is returned. On error, -1 is returned, and errno is
set appropriately.
ERRORS
EPERM The calling process has insufficient privilege to call
vhangup(); the CAP_SYS_TTY_CONFIG capability is required.
CONFORMING TO

intended to be portable.
