+.Sh NAME
+.Nm clearerr ,
+.Nm feof ,
+.Nm ferror ,
+.Nm fileno
+.Nd check and reset stream status
+.Sh LIBRARY
+.Lb libc
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.In stdio.h
+.Ft void
+.Fn clearerr "FILE *stream"
+.Ft int
+.Fn feof "FILE *stream"
+.Ft int
+.Fn ferror "FILE *stream"
+.Ft int
+.Fn fileno "FILE *stream"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The function
+.Fn clearerr
+clears the end-of-file and error indicators for the stream pointed
+to by
+.Fa stream .
+.Pp
+The function
+.Fn feof
+tests the end-of-file indicator for the stream pointed to by
+.Fa stream ,
+returning non-zero if it is set.
+The end-of-file indicator can only be cleared by the function
+.Fn clearerr .
+.Pp
+The function
+.Fn ferror
+tests the error indicator for the stream pointed to by
+.Fa stream ,
+returning non-zero if it is set.
+The error indicator can only be reset by the
+.Fn clearerr
+function.
+.Pp
+The function
+.Fn fileno
+examines the argument
+.Fa stream
+and returns its integer descriptor.
+.Sh ERRORS
+The functions
+.Fn clearerr ,
+.Fn feof ,
+and
+.Fn ferror
+should neither fail nor set the external variable
+.Va errno .
+However, the function
+.Fn fileno
+may fail and return \-1 in case the argument
+.Fa stream
+is not associated with a valid file descriptor.
+(In this case the
+.Nx
+implementation does not follow the optional
+.Tn POSIX
+recommendation to set the
+.Va errno
+variable to
+.Er EBADF . )
+.Sh SEE ALSO
+.Xr open 2 ,
+.Xr stdio 3
+.Sh STANDARDS
+The functions
+.Fn clearerr ,
+.Fn feof ,
+and
+.Fn ferror
+conform to
+.St -ansiC .
+The function
+.Fn fileno
+conforms to
+.St -p1003.1-90 .
