Subject: RFA: avoid deprecated sys_nerr variable
Date: Tue, 19 Oct 2004 19:39:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <vt2hdoqlct2.fsf@zenia.home> (raw)
2004-10-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@redhat.com>
* ptrace-target.c (ptrace_create_child): Don't use sys_nerr to
check that errno is in a valid range. The use sys_nerr is
deprecated on GNU/Linux, and according to the ISO C standard and
POSIX, strerror always returns a valid string, even for invalid
errno codes.
