  156. .IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
  157. The error code returned by \fBERR_get_error()\fR consists of a library
  158. number and reason code. \s-1\fBERR_GET_LIB\s0()\fR
  159. and \s-1\fBERR_GET_REASON\s0()\fR can be used to extract these.
  160. .PP
  161. \&\s-1\fBERR_FATAL_ERROR\s0()\fR indicates whether a given error code is a fatal error.
  162. .PP
  163. The library number describes where the error
  164. occurred, the reason code is the information about what went wrong.
  165. .PP
  166. Each sub-library of OpenSSL has a unique library number; the
  167. reason code is unique within each sub-library. Note that different
  168. libraries may use the same value to signal different reasons.
  169. .PP
  170. \&\fB\s-1ERR_R_...\s0\fR reason codes such as \fB\s-1ERR_R_MALLOC_FAILURE\s0\fR are globally
  171. unique. However, when checking for sub-library specific reason codes,
  172. be sure to also compare the library number.
  173. .PP
  174. \&\s-1\fBERR_GET_LIB\s0()\fR, \s-1\fBERR_GET_REASON\s0()\fR, and \s-1\fBERR_FATAL_ERROR\s0()\fR are macros.
  175. .SH "RETURN VALUES"

  177. The library number, reason code, and whether the error
  178. is fatal, respectively.
  179. Starting with OpenSSL 3.0.0, the function code is always set to zero.
  180. .SH "NOTES"
  181. .IX Header "NOTES"
  182. Applications should not make control flow decisions based on specific error
  183. codes. Error codes are subject to change at any time (even in patch releases of
  184. OpenSSL). A particular error code can only be considered meaningful for control
  185. flow decisions if it is explicitly documented as such. New failure codes may
  186. still appear at any time.
