process GID

The GID of a process. Each process has three group IDs: the real group ID (RGID), effective group ID (EGID), and saved group ID (SGID). The RGID is always inherited from the user or process who executes the process. The EGID is the first GID in the group list. The SGID is used by BSD to enable a privileged process to switch in and out of privileged mode.
