Function Documentation

int explain_setdomainname_on_error	(	const char *	data,
		size_t	data_size
	)

The explain_setdomainname_on_error function is used to call the setdomainname(2) system call. On failure an explanation will be printed to stderr, obtained from the explain_setdomainname(3) function.

Parameters:

data	The data, exactly as to be passed to the setdomainname(2) system call.
data_size	The data_size, exactly as to be passed to the setdomainname(2) system call.

Returns:

The value returned by the wrapped setdomainname(2) system call.

Example:

This function is intended to be used in a fashion similar to the following example:

 if (explain_setdomainname_on_error(data, data_size) < 0)
 {
     ...cope with error
     ...no need to print error message
 }
