On return, if \fIerrno\fP is non-zero or \fIfetestexcept\fP(FE_INVALID | FE_DIVBYZERO | FE_OVERFLOW | FE_UNDERFLOW) is non-zero, an error has occurred. .SH RETURN VALUE .LP Upon successful completion, these functions shall return the relevant Bessel value of \fIx\fP of the second kind. .LP If \fIx\fP is NaN, NaN shall be returned. .LP If the \fIx\fP argument to these functions is negative, -HUGE_VAL or NaN shall be returned, and a domain error may occur. .LP If \fIx\fP is 0.0, -HUGE_VAL shall be returned and a range error may occur. .LP If the correct result would cause underflow, 0.0 shall be returned and a range error may occur. .LP If the correct result would cause overflow, -HUGE_VAL or 0.0 shall be returned and a range error may occur. .SH ERRORS .LP These functions may fail if: .TP 7 Domain\ Error The value of \fIx\fP is negative. .LP If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO) is non-zero, then \fIerrno\fP shall be set to [EDOM]. If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) is non-zero, then the invalid floating-point exception shall be raised. .TP 7 Range\ Error The value of \fIx\fP is 0.0, or the correct result would cause overflow. .LP If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO) is non-zero, then \fIerrno\fP shall be set to [ERANGE]. If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) is non-zero, then the overflow floating-point exception shall be raised. .TP 7 Range\ Error The value of \fIx\fP is too large in magnitude, or the correct result would cause underflow. .LP If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO) is non-zero, then \fIerrno\fP shall be set to [ERANGE]. If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) is non-zero, then the underflow floating-point exception shall be raised. .sp .LP \fIThe following sections are informative.\fP .SH EXAMPLES .LP None. .SH APPLICATION USAGE .LP On error, the expressions (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO) and (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) are independent of each other, but at least one of them must be non-zero. .SH RATIONALE .LP None. .SH FUTURE DIRECTIONS .LP None. .SH SEE ALSO .LP \fIfeclearexcept\fP() , \fIfetestexcept\fP() , \fIisnan\fP() , \fIj0\fP() , the Base Definitions volume of IEEE\ Std\ 1003.1-2001, Section 4.18, Treatment of Error Conditions for Mathematical Functions, \fI\fP .SH COPYRIGHT Portions of this text are reprinted and reproduced in electronic form from IEEE Std 1003.1, 2003 Edition, Standard for Information Technology -- Portable Operating System Interface (POSIX), The Open Group Base Specifications Issue 6, Copyright (C) 2001-2003 by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc and The Open Group.
