This adds a helper function to encapsulate obtaining an error code for errors from OS calls. For Windows we want to use GetLastError() and the system error category, but otherwise just use errno and the generic error category. This should not be used to replace existing uses of ec.assign(errno, generic_category()) because in those cases we really do want to get the value of errno, not a system-specific error. Only the cases that currently use GetLastError() are replace by this new function. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Wakely libstdc++-v3/ChangeLog: * src/filesystem/ops-common.h (last_error): New helper function. (filesystem::do_space): Use last_error(). * src/c++17/fs_ops.cc (fs::absolute, fs::create_hard_link) (fs::equivalent, fs::remove, fs::temp_directory_path): Use last_error(). * src/filesystem/ops.cc (fs::create_hard_link) (fs::remove, fs::temp_directory_path): Likewise. Tested powerpc64le-linux. Committed to trunk.
