Function Documentation
The explain_buffer_errno_fread function is used to obtain an explanation of an error returned by the fread(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:
-
sb | The string buffer to print the message into. If a safe buffer is specified, this function is thread safe. |
errnum | The 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. |
ptr | The original ptr, exactly as passed to the fread(3) system call. |
size | The original size, exactly as passed to the fread(3) system call. |
nmemb | The original nmemb, exactly as passed to the fread(3) system call. |
fp | The original fp, exactly as passed to the fread(3) system call. |
