errno.h(0P) POSIX Programmer's Manual errno.h(0P)
This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual. The Linux
implementation of this interface may differ (consult the
corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or
the interface may not be implemented on Linux.
errno.h — system error numbers
#include <errno.h>
Some of the functionality described on this reference page extends
the ISO C standard. Any conflict between the requirements described
here and the ISO C standard is unintentional. This volume of
POSIX.1‐2008 defers to the ISO C standard.
The ISO C standard only requires the symbols [EDOM], [EILSEQ], and
[ERANGE] to be defined.
The <errno.h> header shall provide a declaration or definition for
errno. The symbol errno shall expand to a modifiable lvalue of type
int. It is unspecified whether errno is a macro or an identifier
declared with external linkage. If a macro definition is suppressed
in order to access an actual object, or a program defines an
identifier with the name errno, the behavior is undefined.
The <errno.h> header shall define the following macros which shall
expand to integer constant expressions with type int, distinct
positive values (except as noted below), and which shall be suitable
for use in #if preprocessing directives:

EACCES Permission denied.
