如何知道“ errno”是什么意思?


221

打电话execl(...)时我得到一个errno=2。这是什么意思?我怎么知道这个意思errno

您可以strerror()用来获取易于理解的错误号字符串。这是由相同的字符串打印出来的,perror()但是如果您要格式化错误消息而不是标准错误输出,这将很有用。

例如:

#include <errno.h>
#include <string.h>

/* ... */

if(read(fd, buf, 1)==-1) {
    printf("Oh dear, something went wrong with read()! %s\n", strerror(errno));
}

Linux还支持显式线程安全变体strerror_r()

1.不保证它是可重入的或线程安全的。3.大多数实现都写入内部静态缓冲区,包括GNU LibC实现

@Ivan是正确的,@ Chris是错误的。strerror()不是线程安全的,strerror_r()而是线程安全的。如果存在其他线程,则可以安全地调用MT安全或线程安全功能。MT-Safe中的MT代表多线程。-p26,GNU C库 char * strerror(int errnum ) [函数]初步:| MT-不安全种族:错误| AS不安全堆i18n | AC不安全的内存| 请参阅第1.2.2.1节[POSIX安全概念],第2页。- p58,GNU C库

@StaceyGirl glibc实际上使用一个函数现在获取errno的地址,因此errno是线程安全的。看:#define errno *__errno_location()
SS安妮

@ JL2210无关紧要errno,GNU libc strerror写入内部全局缓冲区。它并不总是这样做,但是在某些情况下确实如此。当另一个线程正在读取该缓冲区时,您将覆盖该缓冲区。
StaceyGirl '19

抱歉。我以为你在说errno,不是strerror()
SS安妮

perror您可以errno使用以下单行代码在系统上检索值的完整列表,而不必在得到的任何错误代码上运行:

cpp -dM /usr/include/errno.h | grep 'define E' | sort -n -k 3

在Linux上,还有一个非常简洁的工具,可以立即告诉每个错误代码意味着什么。在Ubuntu上:apt-get install errno

然后,例如,如果您想获取错误类型2的描述,只需errno 2在终端中输入。

errno -l您一起获得所有错误及其说明的列表。与以前的张贴者提到的其他方法相比,要容易得多。


+ janneb是,但是errno软件包名称仍然完全有效。

除非您做一些奇怪的事情,否则不行。通常,嵌入perror/ strerror会更好,因为这样用户就不必查找它了。虽然,errno -l更好地找到它们。

我在Vim中使用表格格式来对齐列:

:%Tab /^[^ ]*\zs /r1l1l1
:%Tab /^ *[^ ]* *[^ ]*\zs /l1

错误代码2表示“找不到文件/目录”。通常,您可以使用perror函数来打印人类可读的字符串。

有一些有用的函数可以处理errno。(为了清楚起见,它们是内置的libc-我只是提供示例实现,因为有些人发现阅读代码比阅读英语更清晰。)

#include <string.h>
char *strerror(int errnum);

/* you can think of it as being implemented like this: */
static char strerror_buf[1024];
const char *sys_errlist[] = {
    [EPERM]  = "Operation not permitted",
    [ENOENT] = "No such file or directory",
    [ESRCH]  = "No such process",
    [EINTR]  = "Interrupted system call",
    [EIO]    = "I/O error",
    [ENXIO]  = "No such device or address",
    [E2BIG]  = "Argument list too long",
    /* etc. */
};
int sys_nerr = sizeof(sys_errlist) / sizeof(char *);
char *strerror(int errnum) {
    if (0 <= errnum && errnum < sys_nerr && sys_errlist[errnum])
        strcpy(strerror_buf, sys_errlist[errnum]);
    else
        sprintf(strerror_buf, "Unknown error %d", errnum);
    return strerror_buf;
}

strerror返回描述您传递给它的错误号的字符串。注意,这不是线程安全或中断安全的;可以免费重写字符串并在下一次调用时返回相同的指针。使用strerror_r如果需要有关的忧虑。

#include <stdio.h>
void perror(const char *s);

/* you can think of it as being implemented like this: */
void perror(const char *s) {
    fprintf(stderr, "%s: %s\n", s, strerror(errno));
}

perror打印出您给它的消息,外加描述当前errno为标准错误的字符串。

这比在中查找代码要快errno.h,比在此发布的大多数解决方案要短,并且不需要安装第三方工具:

perl -E 'say $!=shift' 2

产量

No such file or directory


hoo!快速,不依赖于重新编译,并且可以(几乎)在任何地方工作,包括在errno.h不可用的旧机器上。非常感谢。
Adrien Clerc

这是做什么的?(我不知道的Perl)
乔纳森·林

该参数-E将以下引用的代码视为Perl脚本。say正在将其参数写入标准输出。$!是保存的值的特殊变量errno。如果在字符串上下文中使用,则会产生相应的错误字符串。该脚本2通过使用shift命令将值分配给此变量,该命令将参数数组的开头砍掉@ARGV,并将该开头放在其位置。命令行也可以写为perl -E 'say $!=2'

#include <errno.h>

  else { 
    errno = atoi(c[1]); 
    perror(""); 
  } 
  exit(0);

cc perror.c -o perror<<使用此行进行编译


您不应该使用perror(NULL);吗?随着perror("");它的格式: ERROR NAME。有了perror(NULL);它的输出就是ERROR NAME
jgh fun-run

这是文档。那应该告诉您这意味着什么以及如何处理它们。您应该避免使用数字值,也不要使用此处列出的常数,因为数字在不同系统之间可能会发生变化。

我讨厌unix文档如何不将常量与整数值相关联。“ EIO”是什么值?这样的文档毫无价值。
某处某人

@SomeoneSomewhere这是一个功能,而不是错误。您应该始终在代码中使用符号错误代码常量,而不是数字文字。这使您的代码更具可读性,因为诸如EQFULL之类的东西比106更有意义。可悲的是,该语言并没有强制执行此操作,因此您会变得懒惰或头脑混乱,写106而不是EQFULL的人。随时向这些人发送好消息。

问题是perror不会告诉您错误与哪个宏等效,它会打印其他完全不相关的错误消息,甚至有一半的时间都没有出现在手册页中。我想要一个可以打印MACRO名称的perror(),以便在手册页中查找该带血的错误!
DarwinSurvivor

@DarwinSurvivor那时您可能对我的errnoname图书馆感兴趣。它处理了将所有可能的errno名称收集到C函数中的繁琐部分,该函数可以简单地用于从数字中获取errno宏名称。以它为基础,使您的perror变体变得快速而简单。

我使用以下脚本:

#!/usr/bin/python

import errno
import os
import sys

toname = dict((str(getattr(errno, x)), x) 
              for x in dir(errno) 
              if x.startswith("E"))
tocode = dict((x, getattr(errno, x)) 
              for x in dir(errno) 
              if x.startswith("E"))

for arg in sys.argv[1:]:
    if arg in tocode:
        print arg, tocode[arg], os.strerror(tocode[arg])
    elif arg in toname:
        print toname[arg], arg, os.strerror(int(arg))
    else:
        print "Unknown:", arg

3

键入sudo apt-get install moreutils,然后在安装后键入errno 2。您还可以errno -l将所有错误号用于,也可以通过将其错误传递到来仅查看文件错误号grep,如下所示:errno | grep file


2

呼叫

perror("execl");

如果发生错误。

样品:

if(read(fd, buf, 1)==-1) {
    perror("read");
}

和的手册页errno(3)perror(3)很有趣...

当您使用strace(在Linux上)运行二进制文件时,它将输出系统调用的返回结果以及错误号的含义。有时这可能对您有用。

我在我的.bashrc文件如下功能-它查找从头文件errno值(可以是/usr/include/errno.h/usr/include/linux/errno.h等等等等)

如果在计算机上安装了头文件,它将起作用;-)

通常头文件有错误+接下来是注释中的说明;以下内容:

./asm-generic/errno-base.h:#define EAGAIN 11 / *再试一次* /

function errno()
{
    local arg=$1

    if [[ "x$arg" == "x-h" ]]; then
        cat <<EOF
        Usage: errno <num>
        Prints text that describes errno error number
        EOF
    else
        pushd /usr/include
        find . -name "errno*.h" | xargs grep   "[[:space:]]${arg}[[:space:]]"
        popd
    fi
