Linux, convert errno to name

I am looking for an API to convert a开发者_如何学JAVAn errno integer to its name.

For example:

int fd;
if((fd = open(path, O_RDONLY)) == -1)
    printf("error: %d %s %s\n", errno, strerror(errno), ERRNONAME(errno));

So, ERRNONAME would yield a name, such as "EINVAL", "EPERM", etc. Is this possible?


Those names exist as macros in the Errno.h file. There's no standard call to convert the error number to the short code. You could build your own table ...


I recently wrote errnoname to do this.

There is unfortunately still no standard API to do this. (GNU's glibc has strerrorname_np, but no other C library currently provides it, so it's not even available on all Linux distros, let alone anywhere else.)

I try to keep it portable to all systems while covering all errno names on that system. So far that includes Linux, Darwin (macOS, iOS, etc), BSD (FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, etc), several closed-source Unixes, Windows, and a few others.

The only "hard" part is getting the list of errno names and values to do the lookups, knowing which errno are even defined on the target system, and exhaustively handling all cases where multiple errno names might map to the same number. (For example, EWOULDBLOCK is equal to EAGAIN on some systems.)

So in my errnoname library you don't have to deal with any of that. I collect the errno names for many operating systems into a list as a separate step, then I generate the actual released C code from that. The C code uses #ifdef for each name, so it can compile on any system regardless of which errno names and values that system has. The compiled result is just simple and efficient code that doesn't have to call any programs or search for errno in library headers.

I also give you the option to compile it as either an array lookup or as a switch, since errno value are not guaranteed to be even close to contiguous, but on many system are contiguous enough to make an array lookup far better. (Although good modern compilers can automatically notice when it would be better to turn a switch into an array lookup.)

Anyway, since it is released under the "Zero-Clause BSD license" (0BSD), which is a permissive license, or more accurately a public-domain-equivalent license, you can do whatever you want with it.

Below is an old copy-paste of the function from my library, so that this answer is useful even if my repo link ever goes dead, but beware:

  1. The copy here only covers all errno names I could find as of start of August 2019 - I have found many others since then.

  2. I will keep updating the library to include errno names as I find them and as systems add them, add other improvements, and add duplicate protections as possible duplicates are discovered. But I will not (and last I checked, cannot, due to size limits on the answer) keep this answer's copy updated.

You can use strerror libc function

#include <string.h>
...
printf("err = %s \n", strerror(errno));

It does not return exact error string, but description. For example instead of EINVAL, it returns Invalid Argument
