okay bestie so this is a page from the PAPI manual, and the vibe is: it's the papi_error_codes(1) utility. that's it, that's the whole intro 🫶 the source file for it is error_codes.c, iykyk.

💖 NAME 💖

🌸 Synopsis 🌸

papi_error_codes

that's the whole thing. no flags, no extra words, she's lowkey a minimalist icon.

🦋 Description 🦋

so papi_error_codes is a PAPI utility program, and what it does is display all the defined error codes from papi.h along with their matching error strings from papi_data.h. matching set, slay. 💅

and here's the part that's giving main character energy: if an error string is not defined, it generates a warning. like, it will literally call it out. 🙈 why do we care? because this is a whole vibe check for freshly defined error codes — the ones nobody has written an error string for yet. it helps trap them. periodt. 🔥

🎀 Options 🎀

• this utility has no command line options. none. zero. she takes no notes, takes no arguments. ⭐

💀 Bugs 💀

there are no known bugs in this utility. ngl, flawless behavior. 😭

but if you do find a bug, it should be reported to the PAPI Mailing List at ptools-perfapi@icl.utk.edu. go tell the group chat, they'll handle it. 🧚
