99 <para>In addition to the error names user programs define, D-Bus
100 knows a number of generic, standardized error names that are
101 listed below.</para>
102
103 <para>In addition to this list, in sd-bus, the special error
104 namespace <literal>System.Error.</literal> is used to map
105 arbitrary Linux system errors (as defined by <citerefentry
106 project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>errno</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>)
107 to D-Bus errors and back. For example, the error
108 <constant>EUCLEAN</constant> is mapped to
109 <literal>System.Error.EUCLEAN</literal> and back.</para>
