Gnulib module: ioctl
@mindex ioctl
Portability problems fixed by Gnulib:
@itemize
@item
On Windows platforms (excluding Cygwin), @code{ioctl} is called
@code{ioctlsocket}, and error codes from this function are not placed in
@code{errno}, and @code{WSAGetLastError} must be used instead.
@item
The second parameter is of type @code{unsigned long} rather than @code{int}
on some platforms:
glibc 2.26, macOS 14, FreeBSD 14.0, NetBSD 10.0, OpenBSD 7.5, Haiku 2017.
