+.SH NAME
+setreuid \- set real and effective user IDs
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.LP
+\fB#include <unistd.h>
+.br
+.sp
+int setreuid(uid_t\fP \fIruid\fP\fB, uid_t\fP \fIeuid\fP\fB); \fP
+\fB
+.br
+\fP
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.LP
+The \fIsetreuid\fP() function shall set the real and effective user
+IDs of the current process to the values specified by the
+\fIruid\fP and \fIeuid\fP arguments. If \fIruid\fP or \fIeuid\fP is
+-1, the corresponding effective or real user ID of the
+current process shall be left unchanged.
+.LP
+A process with appropriate privileges can set either ID to any value.
+An unprivileged process can only set the effective user ID
+if the \fIeuid\fP argument is equal to either the real, effective,
+or saved user ID of the process.
+.LP
+It is unspecified whether a process without appropriate privileges
+is permitted to change the real user ID to match the current
+real, effective, or saved set-user-ID of the process.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+.LP
+Upon successful completion, 0 shall be returned. Otherwise, -1 shall
+be returned and \fIerrno\fP set to indicate the error.
+.SH ERRORS
+.LP
+The \fIsetreuid\fP() function shall fail if:
+.TP 7
+.B EINVAL
+The value of the \fIruid\fP or \fIeuid\fP argument is invalid or out-of-range.
+.TP 7
+.B EPERM
+The current process does not have appropriate privileges, and either
+an attempt was made to change the effective user ID to a
+value other than the real user ID or the saved set-user-ID or an attempt
+was made to change the real user ID to a value not
+permitted by the implementation.

+.LP
+\fIThe following sections are informative.\fP
+.SH EXAMPLES
+.SS Setting the Effective User ID to the Real User ID
+.LP
+The following example sets the effective user ID of the calling process
+to the real user ID, so that files created later will be
+owned by the current user.
