STANDARDS CONFORMANCE
The HP implementation does not return the errno value [ENOSR].
The following are HP extensions to the XPG4 specification:
• The errno value [ECONNRESET] can be returned when the transport-provider process
is not available.
The use of this function with the POSIX User Thread Model library conforms to the following
industry standards:
• IEEE Std 1003.1-2004, POSIX System Application Program Interface
