SYSDECODE_ABI_TO_FREEBSD_ERRNO(3)

💖 sysdecode_abi_to_freebsd_errno(3) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the Library Functions Manual page for sysdecode_abi_to_freebsd_errno(3) — and yes, it's giving "translation era" energy, because this is all about moving error numbers between process ABIs. 🦋

🌸 NAME 🌸

sysdecode_abi_to_freebsd_errno, sysdecode_freebsd_to_abi_errno — translating error numbers between process ABIs, no cap. 💅

---

🎀 LIBRARY 🎀

library libsysdecode — that's the one, bestie. ✨

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <sysdecode.h>

int
sysdecode_abi_to_freebsd_errno(enum sysdecode_abi abi, int error);

int
sysdecode_freebsd_to_abi_errno(enum sysdecode_abi abi, int error);

---

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

The sysdecode_abi_to_freebsd_errno() function returns the native errno(2) value that corresponds to the error indicated by error for the process ABI abi. If error does not identify a valid error for abi, INT_MAX is returned. 😭

The sysdecode_freebsd_to_abi_errno() function returns the error value for the process ABI abi that corresponds to the native errno(2) value error. If error does not identify a valid errno(2) error, INT_MAX is returned. fr fr.

🫶 note, bestie: the mappings between native errno(2) values and errors for other ABIs are not exhaustive. If a mapping does not exist, these functions return INT_MAX. Also, multiple error values in one ABI may map to a single error in another ABI. iykyk. 💫

---

⭐ RETURN VALUES ⭐

These functions return an error value on success or INT_MAX if error is not valid. That's the whole vibe check, tbh. 🧚

For the list of supported ABIs, see sysdecode(3). 👑
