errno.h(0P)		   POSIX Programmer's Manual		   errno.h(0P)

PROLOG
       This  manual  page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The Linux
       implementation of this interface may differ (consult the	 corresponding
       Linux  manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the interface may
       not be implemented on Linux.

NAME
       errno.h — system error numbers

SYNOPSIS
       #include <errno.h>

DESCRIPTION
       Some of the functionality described on this reference page extends  the
       ISO C  standard.	 Any  conflict between the requirements described here
       and the ISO C standard is unintentional. This  volume  of  POSIX.1‐2008
       defers to the ISO C standard.

       The  ISO C  standard  only  requires  the symbols [EDOM], [EILSEQ], and
       [ERANGE] to be defined.

       The <errno.h> header shall provide  a  declaration  or  definition  for
       errno.	The  symbol  errno shall expand to a modifiable lvalue of type
       int.  It is unspecified whether errno  is  a  macro  or	an  identifier
       declared	 with external linkage. If a macro definition is suppressed in
       order to access an actual object, or a program  defines	an  identifier
       with the name errno, the behavior is undefined.

       The  <errno.h>  header  shall  define  the following macros which shall
       expand to integer constant expressions with type int, distinct positive
       values  (except as noted below), and which shall be suitable for use in
       #if preprocessing directives:
