+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.BR daemon ()
+function is for programs wishing to detach themselves from the
+controlling terminal and run in the background as system daemons.
+.PP
+If
+.I nochdir
+is zero,
+.BR daemon ()
+changes the process's current working directory
+to the root directory ("/");
+otherwise, the current working directory is left unchanged.
+.PP
+If
+.I noclose
+is zero,
+.BR daemon ()
+redirects standard input, standard output, and standard error
+to
+.IR /dev/null ;
+otherwise, no changes are made to these file descriptors.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+(This function forks, and if the
+.BR fork (2)
+succeeds, the parent calls
+.\" not .IR in order not to underline _
+.BR _exit (2),
+so that further errors are seen by the child only.)
+On success
+.BR daemon ()
+returns zero.
+If an error occurs,
+.BR daemon ()
+returns \-1 and sets
+.I errno
+to any of the errors specified for the
+.BR fork (2)
+and
+.BR setsid (2).
+.SH ATTRIBUTES
+For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see
+.BR attributes (7).

+.SH VERSIONS
+A similar function appears on the BSDs.
+.PP
+The glibc implementation can also return \-1 when
+.I /dev/null
+exists but is not a character device with the expected
+major and minor numbers.
+In this case,
+.I errno
+need not be set.
+.SH STANDARDS
+None.
+.SH HISTORY
+4.4BSD.
+.SH BUGS
+The GNU C library implementation of this function was taken from BSD,
+and does not employ the double-fork technique (i.e.,
+.BR fork (2),
+.BR setsid (2),
+.BR fork (2))
+that is necessary to ensure that the resulting daemon process is
+not a session leader.
+Instead, the resulting daemon
+.I is
+a session leader.
+.\" FIXME . https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19144
+.\" Tested using a program that uses daemon() and then opens an
+.\" otherwise unused console device (/dev/ttyN) that does not
+.\" have an associated getty process.
+On systems that follow System V semantics (e.g., Linux),
+this means that if the daemon opens a terminal that is not
+already a controlling terminal for another session,
+then that terminal will inadvertently become
+the controlling terminal for the daemon.
