zig/lib/std/os.zig

// This file contains thin wrappers around OS-specific APIs, with these
// specific goals in mind:
// * Convert "errno"-style error codes into Zig errors.
// * When null-terminated byte buffers are required, provide APIs which accept
//   slices as well as APIs which accept null-terminated byte buffers. Same goes
//   for UTF-16LE encoding.
// * Where operating systems share APIs, e.g. POSIX, these thin wrappers provide
//   cross platform abstracting.
// * When there exists a corresponding libc function and linking libc, the libc
//   implementation is used. Exceptions are made for known buggy areas of libc.
//   On Linux libc can be side-stepped by using `std.os.linux` directly.
// * For Windows, this file represents the API that libc would provide for
//   Windows. For thin wrappers around Windows-specific APIs, see `std.os.windows`.
// Note: The Zig standard library does not support POSIX thread cancellation, and
// in general EINTR is handled by trying again.
