those are indicators to the external environment abt the status of execution of the program ( child's indication to parent )
you could map any of the return codes to {0, 1} to either SUCCESS or FAILURE
but convention is,
0->SUCCESS
1->FAILURE

ldrseek(3) Library Functions Manual ldrseek(3)
NAME
ldrseek, ldnrseek - seek to relocation entries of a section of a common object file
SYNOPSIS
#include <stdio.h>
#include <filehdr.h>
#include <syms.h>
#include <ldfcn.h>
int ldrseek (ldptr, sectindx)
LDFILE *ldptr;
unsigned short sectindx;
int ldnrseek (ldptr, sectname)
LDFILE *ldptr;
char *sectname;
DESCRIPTION
ldrseek seeks to the relocation entries of the section specified by sectindx of the common object file currently associated with ldptr.
ldnrseek seeks to the relocation entries of the section specified by sectname.
ldrseek and ldnrseek return SUCCESS or FAILURE. If sectindx is greater than the number of sections in the object file, ldrseek fails; if
there is no section name corresponding with sectname, ldnrseek fails. If the specified section has no relocation entries or if it cannot
seek to the specified relocation entries, either function fails.
NOTE: The first section has an index of one.
The program must be loaded with the object file access routine library libmld.a.
