* For read, write, send, sendto, recv, recvfrom return EINVAL is size arg > SSIZE_MAX. For readv, writev, sendmsg, recvmsg return EINVAL if sum of the over iov_len values overflows an ssize_t. Based on what XPG 4.2 says (though XPG is not entirely consistent here). Basically since the return ↵millert1998-07-281-4/+15
| | | | value is ssize_t allowing size > SSIZE_MAX is bad since people who (incorrectly mind you) check the return value for < 0 instead of == -1 will have bad things happen to them.
