If you know the pattern of first line or some word which does not repeat else where in the file,then you can use grep command.
cat filename | grep -v 'pattern' > file_temp
mv file_temp > filename

csx_error2text
csx_Error2Text(9F) Kernel Functions for Drivers csx_Error2Text(9F)
NAME
csx_Error2Text - convert error return codes to text strings
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/pccard.h>
int32_t csx_Error2Text(error2text_t *er);
INTERFACE LEVEL
Solaris DDI Specific (Solaris DDI)
PARAMETERS
er Pointer to an error2text_t structure.
DESCRIPTION
This function is a Solaris-specific extension that provides a method for clients to convert Card Services error return codes to text
strings.
STRUCTURE MEMBERS
The structure members of error2text_t are:
uint32_t item; /*the error code*/
char test[CS_ERROR_MAX_BUFSIZE}; /*the error code*/
A pointer to the text for the Card Services error return code in the item field is returned in the text field if the error return code is
found. The client is not responsible for allocating a buffer to hold the text. If the Card Services error return code specified in the item
field is not found, the text field will be set to a string of the form:
"{unknown Card Services return code}"
RETURN VALUES
CS_SUCCESS Successful operation.
CS_UNSUPPORTED_FUNCTION No PCMCIA hardware installed.
CONTEXT
This function may be called from user or kernel context.
EXAMPLES
Example 1: : Using the csxError2Text function
if ((ret = csx_RegisterClient(&client_handle, &
client_reg)) != CS_SUCCESS)
{
error2text_t error2text;
error2text.item = ret;
csx_Error2Text(&error2text);
cmn_err(CE_CONT, "RegisterClient failed %s (0x%x)",
error2text.text, ret);
}
