+.SH "SYNOPSIS"

+\fBnewgidmap\fR
+verifies that the caller is the owner of the process indicated by
+\fBpid\fR
+and that for each of the above sets, each of the GIDs in the range [lowergid, lowergid+count] is allowed to the caller according to
+/etc/subgid
+before setting
+/proc/[pid]/gid_map\&.
+.PP
+Note that newgidmap may be used only once for a given process\&.
