10 | #include <openssl/err.h> | |

12 | int ERR_GET_LIB(unsigned long e); | |

14 | int ERR_GET_FUNC(unsigned long e); | |

20 | =head1 DESCRIPTION |
21 | ||
22 | The error code returned by ERR_get_error() consists of a library | |
23 | number, function code and reason code. ERR_GET_LIB(), ERR_GET_FUNC() | |
24 | and ERR_GET_REASON() can be used to extract these. | |
25 | ||
036ba500 BK |
26 | ERR_FATAL_ERROR() indicates whether a given error code is a fatal error. |
27 | ||
388f2f56 UM |
28 | The library number and function code describe where the error |
29 | occurred, the reason code is the information about what went wrong. | |
30 | ||
31 | Each sub-library of OpenSSL has a unique library number; function and | |
32 | reason codes are unique within each sub-library. Note that different | |
33 | libraries may use the same value to signal different functions and | |
34 | reasons. | |
35 | ||
36 | B<ERR_R_...> reason codes such as B<ERR_R_MALLOC_FAILURE> are globally | |
37 | unique. However, when checking for sub-library specific reason codes, | |
38 | be sure to also compare the library number. | |
39 | ||
036ba500 | 40 | ERR_GET_LIB(), ERR_GET_FUNC(), ERR_GET_REASON(), and ERR_FATAL_ERROR() |
aac96e27 | 41 | are macros. |

43 | =head1 RETURN VALUES | |
44 | ||
036ba500 BK |
45 | The library number, function code, reason code, and whether the error |
46 | is fatal, respectively. | |
aac96e27 | 47 | Starting with OpenSSL 3.0.0, the function code is always set to zero. |
