The <i>fildes<\/i> argument is a file descriptor that refers to the master device. The <i>ptsname<\/i>() function shall return a pointer to a string containing the pathname of the corresponding slave device.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em\">The <i>ptsname<\/i>() function need not be thread-safe.<\/p>\n<h2>RETURN VALUE <a name=\"RETURN VALUE\"><\/a> <\/h2>\n<p style=\"margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em\">Upon successful completion, <i>ptsname<\/i>() shall return a pointer to a string which is the name of the pseudo-terminal slave device. Upon failure, <i>ptsname<\/i>() shall return a null pointer and may set <i>errno<\/i>. This could occur if <i>fildes<\/i> is an invalid file descriptor or if the slave device name does not exist in the file system.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em\">The application shall not modify the string returned.
