NAME

DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
-----------
|
||
|
The _tep_strerror()_ function converts tep error number into a human
|
||
|
readable string.
|
||
|
The _tep_ argument is trace event parser context. The _errnum_ is a regular
|
||
|
errno, defined in errno.h, or a tep error number. The string, describing this
|
||
|
error number is copied in the _buf_ argument. The _buflen_ argument is
|
||
|
the size of the _buf_.
|
||
|
|
||
|
It as a thread safe wrapper around strerror_r(). The library function has two
|
||
|
different behaviors - POSIX and GNU specific. The _tep_strerror()_ API always
|
||
|
behaves as the POSIX version - the error string is copied in the user supplied
|
||
|
buffer.
|
||
|
|
||
|
RETURN VALUE
|
||
|
------------
|
||
|
The _tep_strerror()_ function returns 0, if a valid _errnum_ is passed and the
|
||
|
string is copied into _buf_. If _errnum_ is not a valid error number,
|
||
|
-1 is returned and _buf_ is not modified.

|
char *pool = calloc(1, 128);
|
||
|
if (tep == NULL) {
|
||
|
tep_strerror(tep, TEP_ERRNO__MEM_ALLOC_FAILED, buf, 32);
|
||
|
printf ("The pool is not initialized, %s", buf);
