*
* Error codes and descriptions.
*
* This file provides the global variable #errno and the function
* strerror(). These function much like their standard C library
* equivalents.
*
* The error numbers used by Etherboot are a superset of those defined
* by the PXE specification version 2.1. See errno.h for a listing of
* the error values.
*
* To save space in ROM images, error string tables are optional. Use
* the ERRORMSG_XXX options in config.h to select which error string
* tables you want to include. If an error string table is omitted,
* strerror() will simply return the text "Error 0x<errno>".
