Description
fopen is as specified in
ISO POSIX (2003), but with differences as listed below.
May return ENODEV in place of ENXIO
Where the ISO POSIX (2003) specifies an ENXIO return, the implementation may return either ENXIO or ENODEV. Implementations are encouraged to return ENXIO.
 | As of spring 2004, we don't know of any Linux kernel patches to switch to ENXIO, but we believe that such a kernel patch would be accepted if submitted. |
