Linux C errno出错处理

1. 出错处理errno

每个进程维护一个全局整型变量errno, 记录系统(调用)的最后一次错误代码. errno及其常量值定义位于<errno.h>.
以前, errno不是线程安全的, 其定义是:

extern int errno;

现在, 为支持多线程环境, errno定义是:

extern int *__errno_location(void);
#define errno (*__errno_location())

errno与多线程:
每个线程都有属于直接的局部errno(errno副本), 可以避免一个线程干扰另外一个线程.

errno使用规则:

  1. 如果没有出错, errno值不会被例程清除. 只有函数返回值表明出错时, 才检验errno值;
  2. 任何函数都不会将errno设置为0, errno.h定义的所有常量也不为0;

errno错误输出:
C标准定义了2个函数, 用于打印出错信息: perror和strerror.


2. 错误输出perror

perror基于当前errno值, 输出除外信息到stderr. 也就是说, 只有函数出错返回时, 会设置errno时, 才能用perror输出错误信息.

#include <stdio.h>

void perror(const char *msg);

如系统调用fork失败, 可以输出失败的详细信息:

int ret = fork();
if (ret < 0) {
    perorr("fork failed");
    exit(1);
}

3. 错误输出strerror

strerror将errnum(通常是errno值)转化为出错消息字符串. 有些函数/系统调用, 如pthread_create, 是不会设置errnor的, 此时就可以利用strerror将函数返回错误码, 转化为出错字符串, 然后输出到stdout/stderr.
至于函数调用失败时, 如何确认是否设置errno, 可以查看man手册.

#include <string.h>

char *strerror(int errnum);
pthread_t th1;
int ret = pthread_create(&th1, NULL, thr_func, NULL);
if (ret < 0) {
    printf("%s
", strerror(ret));
    exit(1);
}

4. errno出错常量

errno值宏定义值位于 error.h, 用命令man 3 errno查看. 不过, 这种方法只能看到宏和对应注释含义, 无法看到定义的数值.

或者安装ctags后, 可以输入vim -t命令查看任意一个标识符, 如查看EINTR

$ vim -t EINTR

所有errno取值:
