Summary0001245: getpgrp RATIONALE refers to getpgid as "XSI extension"
DescriptionThe RATIONALE section of getpgrp refers to getpgid as an "XSI extension". However this is incorrect because getpgid has been made mandatory in issue 7.
Desired ActionOn page 1069 lines 36344-36347 section getpgrp, change:
4.3 BSD provides a getpgrp( ) function that returns the process group ID for a specified process.
Although this function supports job control, all known job control shells always specify the
calling process with this function. Thus, the simpler System V getpgrp( ) suffices, and the added
complexity of the 4.3 BSD getpgrp( ) is provided by the XSI extension getpgid( ).
