Description:
8+
The /proc/$pid/loginuid pseudofile is written to set and
9+
read to get the audit login UID of process $pid. If it is
10+
unset, permissions are not needed to set it. The accessor must
11+
have CAP_AUDIT_CONTROL in the initial user namespace to write
12+
it if it has been set. It cannot be written again if
13+
AUDIT_FEATURE_LOGINUID_IMMUTABLE is enabled. It cannot be
14+
unset if AUDIT_FEATURE_ONLY_UNSET_LOGINUID is enabled.
