Can you refer a source of this information?

I tried the following snippet on Mac OS and FreeBSD and it at least does
not report an error:

 | #include <unistd.h>
 | #include <stdio.h>
 | 
 | int
 | main()
 | {
 | 	if (setsid() == -1) {
 | 		perror("setsid");
 | 		return 1;
 | 	}
 | 	return 0;
 | }

$ cc setsid.c -o setsid
$ echo 1 | ./setsid

(Pipeline is to not be a session leader already, this will lead to EPERM.)
