💖 gensio_err — error reporting values for gensio functions 💖

okay bestie, we're in the Library Functions Manual section and this is the page about all the little error codes gensio throws at you. no cap, it's lowkey the most important list you'll ever read. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

gensio_err — error reporting values for gensio functions

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <gensio/gensio_err.h>
const char *gensio_err_to_str(int err)

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so here's the tea 🫖: every gensio function that returns an error, and every value that shows up in a callback from the gensio library, is handing you a gensio error. that's it, that's the whole vibe. possible values are:

• GE_NOERR — no error 💅
• GE_NOMEM — out of memory 😭
• GE_NOTSUP — operation not supported 🙅
• GE_INVAL — invalid data to parameter
• GE_NOTFOUND — value or file not found 🔍
• GE_EXISTS — value already exists
• GE_OUTOFRANGE — value out of range
• GE_INCONSISTENT — parameters inconsistent in call
• GE_NODATA — no data was available for the function
• GE_OSERR — OS error, see logs 👀
• GE_INUSE — object was already in use
• GE_INPROGRESS — operation is in progress ⏳
• GE_NOTREADY — object was not ready for operation
• GE_TOOBIG — value was too large for data
• GE_TIMEDOUT — operation timed out ⌛
• GE_RETRY — retry operation later 🔁
• GE_KEYNOTFOUND — unable to find the given key 🔑
• GE_CERTREVOKED — key was revoked
• GE_CERTEXPIRED — key was expired
• GE_KEYINVALID — key is not valid
• GE_NOCERT — certificate not provided
• GE_CERTINVALID — certificate is not valid
• GE_PROTOERR — protocol error
• GE_COMMERR — communication error 📡
• GE_IOERR — internal I/O error
• GE_REMCLOSE — remote end closed connection 👋
• GE_HOSTDOWN — host could not be reached
• GE_CONNREFUSE — connection refused 🚫
• GE_DATAMISSING — data was missing
• GE_CERTNOTFOUND — unable to find given certificate
• GE_AUTHREJECT — authentication tokens rejected
• GE_ADDRINUSE — address already in use
• GE_INTERRUPTED — operation was interrupted by a signal ⚡
• GE_SHUTDOWN — operation on shutdown file descriptor
• GE_LOCALCLOSED — local side closed connection
• GE_PERM — permission denied 🙈
• GE_APPERR — application error
• GE_UNKNOWN_NAME_ERROR — unknown name server lookup failure
• GE_NAME_ERROR — unable to find a valid name on the name server
• GE_NAME_SERVER_FAILURE — serious name server failure 💀
• GE_NAME_INVALID — invalid name server information
• GE_NAME_NET_NOT_UP — network address for the given name is not available

and then there's gensio_err_to_str, which is the glow-up function: it converts an integer error value into the given string. so you can actually read what went wrong instead of staring at a number like it's a cryptic text from your ex. iconic behavior, honestly. 👑
