writev(2) OSS System Calls Reference Manual
[EWOULDBLOCK]
The process attempted an operation on a socket for which O_NONBLOCK is
set, there is no space available, and no error has occurred.
[EWRONGID] One of these conditions occurred:
• The process attempted an input or output operation through an operating
system input/output process (such as a terminal server process) that has
failed or is in the down state.
• The processor for the disk process of the specified file failed during an
input or output operation, and takeover by the backup process occurred.
• The open file descriptor has migrated to a new processor but the new
processor lacks a resource or system process needed for use of the file
descriptor.
The file descriptor specified by the filedes parameter can only be closed.
For all other error conditions, errno is set to the appropriate Guardian file-system error number.
See the Guardian Procedure Errors and Messages Manual for more information about a specific
Guardian file-system error.

STANDARDS CONFORMANCE
The HP implementation does not generate the SIGXFSZ signal.
HP extensions to the XPG4 Version 2 specification are:
• The errno values [ECONNRESET], [EFAULT], [EGUARDIANLOCKED], [EINVAL],
[ENETDOWN], [ENOTCONN], [ETIMEDOUT], and [EWRONGID] can be returned.
• For systems running J06.07 and later J-series RVUs or H06.18 and later H-series RVUs,
the errno value [ENOMEM] can be returned when there is not enough system memory
available to complete the operation.
The use of this function with the POSIX User Thread Model library conforms to industry stan-
dards as follows:
• IEEE Std 1003.1-2004, POSIX System Application Program Interface
• When a signal arrives during a call to a thread-aware writev( ) function, the thread-aware
writev() retries the I/O operation instead of returning the errno value [EINTR] with the
following exception. If the thread-aware fork() function is called by a signal handler
that is running on a thread performing a thread-aware writev( ) call, the thread-aware
writev() call in the child process returns [EINTR] to the application.
