This is useful for programs that just wants to check whether they should carry out some action. Note that the user identity used for the purpose of checking authorizations is the Real one compared to the e.g. Effective one (e.g. getuid(), getgid() is used instead of e.g. geteuid(), getegid()). This is typically what one wants in a setuid root program if the setuid root program is designed to do work on behalf of the unprivileged user who invoked it (for example, the PulseAudio sound server is setuid root only so it can become a real time process; after that it drops all privileges). It varies whether one wants to pass getpid() or getppid() as the process id to this function. For example, in the PulseAudio case it is the right thing to pass getpid(). However, in a setup where the process is a privileged helper, one wants to pass the process id of the parent. Beware though, if the parent dies, getppid() will return 1 (the process id of /sbin/init) which is almost certainly guaranteed to be privileged as it is running as uid 0. Note that this function will open a connection to the system message bus and query ConsoleKit for details. In addition, it will load PolicyKit specific files and spawn privileged helpers if necessary. As such, there is a bit of IPC, context switching, syscall overhead and I/O involved in using this function. pid : Process ID of process to grant authorization to.
