FERROR(3) BSD Library Functions Manual FERROR(3)NAME
clearerr, feof, ferror, fileno -- check and reset stream status
LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <stdio.h>
void
clearerr(FILE *stream);
int
feof(FILE *stream);
int
ferror(FILE *stream);
int
fileno(FILE *stream);
DESCRIPTION
The function clearerr() clears the end-of-file and error indicators for the stream pointed to by stream.
The function feof() tests the end-of-file indicator for the stream pointed to by stream, returning non-zero if it is set. The end-of-file
indicator can only be cleared by the function clearerr().
The function ferror() tests the error indicator for the stream pointed to by stream, returning non-zero if it is set. The error indicator
can only be reset by the clearerr() function.
The function fileno() examines the argument stream and returns its integer descriptor.
ERRORS
The functions clearerr(), feof(), and ferror() should neither fail nor set the external variable errno. However, the function fileno() may
fail and return -1 in case the argument stream is not associated with a valid file descriptor. (In this case the NetBSD implementation does
not follow the optional POSIX recommendation to set the errno variable to EBADF.)
SEE ALSO open(2), stdio(3)STANDARDS
The functions clearerr(), feof(), and ferror() conform to ANSI X3.159-1989 (``ANSI C89''). The function fileno() conforms to ISO/IEC
9945-1:1990 (``POSIX.1'').

hi guys, I'have a question 4 u.
Why this code give me the right output (an integer on the stdout):
read(fd,&mpid,sizeof(pid_t));
printf("%d\n",mpid);
Instead this code give me only a blank line:
read(fd,&mpid,sizeof(pid_t));
write(STDOUT_FILENO,&mpid,sizeof(pid_t));
