NAME
       error - return an error

SYNOPSIS
       size[4] Rerror tag[2] ename[s]

DESCRIPTION
       The  Rerror  message  (there  is	 no Terror) is used to return an error
       string describing the failure of a transaction.	It replaces the correā€
       sponding	 reply message that would accompany a successful call; its tag
       is that of the failing request.

       By convention, clients  may  truncate  error  messages  after  ERRMAX-1
       bytes; ERRMAX is defined in <libc.h>.
