The C standard states:

- C Standard, 7.23.6.1.15. The fprintf function
However, cosmopolitan fails to return a negative value in the case of
an output error, meaning that a program such as:
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
FILE *fp = fopen("/dev/full", "w");
setbuf(fp, NULL);
printf("fprintf: %d\n", fprintf(fp, "test\n"));
printf("fflush: %d\n", fflush(fp));
}
will, under cosmopolitan, print that no error occured in either of the
calls to fprintf and fflush.
