<h4 class="subsection">E.13.4 The <code>F</code> Reply Packet</h4>
<a name="index-file_002di_002fo-reply-packet"></a>
<a name="index-F-reply-packet"></a>
<p>The <code>F</code> reply packet has the following format:
</p>
<dl compact="compact">
<dt>&lsquo;<samp>F<var>retcode</var>,<var>errno</var>,<var>Ctrl-C flag</var>;<var>call-specific attachment</var></samp>&rsquo;</dt>
<dd>
<p><var>retcode</var> is the return code of the system call as hexadecimal value.
</p>
<p><var>errno</var> is the <code>errno</code> set by the call, in protocol-specific
representation.
This parameter can be omitted if the call was successful.
</p>
<p><var>Ctrl-C flag</var> is only sent if the user requested a break. In this
case, <var>errno</var> must be sent as well, even if the call was successful.
The <var>Ctrl-C flag</var> itself consists of the character &lsquo;<samp>C</samp>&rsquo;:
</p>
<div class="smallexample">
<pre class="smallexample">F0,0,C
</pre></div>
<p>or, if the call was interrupted before the host call has been performed:
</p>
<div class="smallexample">
<pre class="smallexample">F-1,4,C
</pre></div>
<p>assuming 4 is the protocol-specific representation of <code>EINTR</code>.
