errno


Linux errno

errno是linux中重要的变量，在多线程中errno定义如下：
        extern int *__errno_location()
        #define errno (*__errno_location ())

从这个定义可以看出errno实际返回的是一个整形指针的值，而不单纯是一个全局变量，通过int *__errno_location()这个函数可以直接映射到每个线程私有的变量，这样就保证了errno的线程安全性，每个线程独自维护一个errno，同样如果我们自己的代码中如果需要定义自己的errno的值，也可以直接对errno进行复值 errno = 2008.

在使用的时候要注意内核永远不会清掉errno的值，所以只有当系统调用出错时才可以读errno的值

具体值的含义定义在：
