Summary |
0000913: mention resource exhaustion as a possible source of errors for all utilities |
|
Description |
The standard says:The many reasons for failure of a utility are generally not specified by the utility descriptions. Utilities may terminate prematurely if they encounter: invalid usage of options, arguments, or environment variables; invalid usage of the complex syntaxes expressed in EXTENDED DESCRIPTION sections; difficulties accessing, creating, reading, or writing files; or difficulties associated with the privileges of the process. Resource exhaustion should be included in the list.
