30 /* Authors of new ports of the GNU C Library must override this file
31 with their own bits/errno.h in an appropriate subdirectory of
32 sysdeps/. Its function is to define all of the error constants
33 from C2011 and POSIX.1-2008, with values appropriate to the
34 operating system, and any additional OS-specific error constants.
36 C2011 requires all error constants to be object-like macros that
37 expand to "integer constant expressions with type int, positive
38 values, and suitable for use in #if directives". Moreover, all of
39 their names must begin with a capital E, followed immediately by
40 either another capital letter, or a digit. It is OK to define
41 macros that are not error constants, but only in the implementation
44 errno.h is sometimes included from assembly language. Therefore,
45 when __ASSEMBLER__ is defined, bits/errno.h may only define macros;
46 it may not make any other kind of C declaration or definition.
47 Also, the error constants should, if at all possible, expand to
48 simple decimal or hexadecimal numbers. */
