Add man pages for seteuid() and friends. Also add an overview page that explains the general concepts. 2020-06-30 15:32:10 -04:00			`## Name`

Everywhere: Switch from (void) to [[maybe_unused]] (#4473) Problem: - `(void)` simply casts the expression to void. This is understood to indicate that it is ignored, but this is really a compiler trick to get the compiler to not generate a warning. Solution: - Use the `[[maybe_unused]]` attribute to indicate the value is unused. Note: - Functions taking a `(void)` argument list have also been changed to `()` because this is not needed and shows up in the same grep command. 2020-12-20 16:09:48 -07:00			`uid_t geteuid();`
