Function Documentation

void explain_buffer_errno_fflush ( explain_string_buffer_t sb,
int  errnum,
FILE *  fp 
)

The explain_buffer_errno_fflush function is used to obtain an explanation of an error returned by the fflush(3) system call. The least the message will contain is the value of strerror(errnum), but usually it will do much better, and indicate the underlying cause in more detail.

Parameters:
sbThe string buffer to print the message into. If a suitable buffer is specified, this function is thread safe.
errnumThe error value to be decoded, usually obtained from the errno global variable just before this function is called. This is necessary if you need to call any code between the system call to be explained and this function, because many libc functions will alter the value of errno.
fpThe original fp, exactly as passed to the fflush(3) system call.
Note:
Given a suitably thread safe buffer, this function is thread safe.

void explain_buffer_errno_fflush_explanation ( explain_string_buffer_t sb,
int  errnum,
const char *  syscall_name,
FILE *  fp 
)

The explain_buffer_errno_fflush_explanation is used by the explain_buffer_errno_fflush function (and others) to decode the errno value.

Parameters:
sbThe string buffer into which the message is to be written.
errnumThe error value to be decoded.
syscall_nameThe name of the offending system call.
fpThe original fp, exactly as passed to the fflush(3) system call.
