+.Sh NAME
+.Nm setsid
+.Nd create session and set process group ID
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.In unistd.h
+.Ft pid_t
+.Fn setsid "void"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Fn setsid
+function creates a new session.
+The calling process is the session leader of the new session, is the
+process group leader of a new process group and has no controlling
+terminal.
+The calling process is the only process in either the session or the
+process group.
+.Pp
+Upon successful completion, the
+.Fn setsid
+function returns the value of the process group ID of the new process
+group, which is the same as the process ID of the calling process.
+.Sh ERRORS
+If an error occurs,
+.Fn setsid
+returns \-1 and the global variable
+.Va errno
+is set to indicate the error, as follows:
+.Bl -tag -width Er
+.It Bq Er EPERM
+The calling process is already a process group leader, or the process
+group ID of a process other than the calling process matches the process
+ID of the calling process.
