Описание (Description)
The perror() function produces a message on standard error
describing the last error encountered during a call to a system
or library function.
First (if s is not NULL and *s is not a null byte ('\0')), the
argument string s is printed, followed by a colon and a blank.
Then an error message corresponding to the current value of errno
and a new-line.
To be of most use, the argument string should include the name of
the function that incurred the error.
The global error list sys_errlist[], which can be indexed by
errno, can be used to obtain the error message without the
newline. The largest message number provided in the table is
sys_nerr-1. Be careful when directly accessing this list,
because new error values may not have been added to
sys_errlist[]. The use of sys_errlist[] is nowadays deprecated;
use strerror(3) instead.
When a system call fails, it usually returns -1 and sets the
variable errno to a value describing what went wrong. (These
values can be found in <errno.h>.) Many library functions do
likewise. The function perror() serves to translate this error
code into human-readable form. Note that errno is undefined
after a successful system call or library function call: this
call may well change this variable, even though it succeeds, for
example because it internally used some other library function
that failed. Thus, if a failing call is not immediately followed
by a call to perror(), the value of errno should be saved.
Версии (Versions)
Since glibc version 2.32, the declarations of sys_errlist and
sys_nerr are no longer exposed by <stdio.h>.

Стандарты (Conforming to)
perror(), errno: POSIX.1-2001, POSIX.1-2008, C89, C99, 4.3BSD.
The externals sys_nerr and sys_errlist derive from BSD, but are
not specified in POSIX.1.
Примечание (Note)
The externals sys_nerr and sys_errlist are defined by glibc, but
in <stdio.h>.
