instance: handle setgid() before setuid()
When attempting to run a service with an unprivileged user and group id procd, the following error might occur: procd: failed to set uid:1000, gid:1000 This is due to the fact that procd first performs the setuid(), then the setgid() call. Usually there no sufficient permissions after a setuid() anymore to change the effective group id of the process. Refactor the code to: * Swap the invocations (first gid, then uid) * Don't set user or group id if it is 0 * Handle errors independently and make them more verbose Signed-off-by: Jo-Philipp Wich <jow@openwrt.org>
