+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Fn setuid
+function
+sets the real and effective
+user IDs and the saved set-user-ID of the current process
+to the specified value.
+.\" Comment out next block for !_POSIX_SAVED_IDS
+.\" The real user ID and the saved set-user-ID are changed only if the
+.\" effective user ID is that of the super user.
+.\" I.e.
+.\" .Fn setuid
+.\" function is equal to
+.\" .Fn seteuid
+.\" function if the effective user ID is not that of the super user.
+.\" End of block
+The
+.Fn setuid
+function is permitted if the specified ID is equal to the real user ID
+.\" Comment out next line for !_POSIX_SAVED_IDS
+.\" or the saved set-user-ID
+.\" Next line is for Appendix B.4.2.2 case.
+or the effective user ID
+of the process, or if the effective user ID is that of the super user.
+.Pp
+The
+.Fn setgid
+function
+sets the real and effective
+group IDs and the saved set-group-ID of the current process
+to the specified value.
+.\" Comment out next block for !_POSIX_SAVED_IDS
+.\" The real group ID and the saved set-group-ID are changed only if the
+.\" effective user ID is that of the super user.
+.\" I.e.
+.\" .Fn setgid
+.\" function is equal to
+.\" .Fn setegid
+.\" function if the effective user ID is not that of the super user.

+The

+function is permitted if the specified ID is equal to the real group ID
+.\" Comment out next line for !_POSIX_SAVED_IDS
+.\" or the saved set-group-ID
+.\" Next line is for Appendix B.4.2.2 case.
+or the effective group ID
+of the process, or if the effective user ID is that of the super user.
+.Pp
+The
+.Fn seteuid
+function
+.Pq Fn setegid
+sets the effective user ID (group ID) of the
+current process.
+The effective user ID may be set to the value
+of the real user ID or the saved set-user-ID (see
+.Xr intro 2
+and
+.Xr execve 2 ) ;
+in this way, the effective user ID of a set-user-ID executable
+may be toggled by switching to the real user ID, then re-enabled
+by reverting to the set-user-ID value.
+Similarly, the effective group ID may be set to the value
+of the real group ID or the saved set-user-ID.
+.Sh RETURN VALUES
+.Rv -std
+.Sh ERRORS
+The functions will fail if:
+.Bl -tag -width Er
+.It Bq Er EPERM
+The user is not the super user and the ID
+specified is not the real, effective ID, or saved ID.

+.Sh STANDARDS
+The
+.Fn setuid
+and
+.Fn setgid
+functions are compliant with the
+.St -p1003.1-90
+specification with
+.Li _POSIX_SAVED_IDS
+.\" Uncomment next line for !_POSIX_SAVED_IDS
+not
+defined with the permitted extensions from Appendix B.4.2.2.
+The
+.Fn seteuid
+and
+.Fn setegid
+functions are extensions based on the
+.Tn POSIX
+concept of
+.Li _POSIX_SAVED_IDS ,
+and have been proposed for a future revision of the standard.
+.Sh HISTORY
+A
+.Fn setuid
