Error reporting in the API

Synopsis

Detailed Description

Most functions in the hwloc API return an integer value​. Unless documentated differently, they return 0 on success and -1 on error​. Functions that return a pointer type return NULL on error​.

errno will be set to a meaningful value whenever possible​. This includes the usual EINVAL when invalid function parameters are passed or ENOMEM when an internal allocation fails​. Some specific errno value are also used, for instance for binding errors as documented in CPU binding​.

Some modules describe return values of their functions in their introduction, for instance in The bitmap API​.
