       This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The OS
       implementation of this interface may differ (consult the corresponding
       OS manual page for details of OS behavior), or the interface may not be
       implemented on OS.

       The functionality described on this reference page is aligned with the
       ISO C standard. Any conflict between the requirements described here
       and the ISO C standard is unintentional. This volume of POSIX.1-2008
       defers to the ISO C standard.

       The _f_e_g_e_t_e_n_v() function shall attempt to store the current floating-
       point environment in the object pointed to by _e_n_v_p.

       The _f_e_s_e_t_e_n_v() function shall attempt to establish the floating-point
       environment represented by the object pointed to by _e_n_v_p.  The argument
       _e_n_v_p shall point to an object set by a call to _f_e_g_e_t_e_n_v() or
       _f_e_h_o_l_d_e_x_c_e_p_t(), or equal a floating-point environment macro. The
       _f_e_s_e_t_e_n_v() function does not raise floating-point exceptions, but only
       installs the state of the floating-point status flags represented
       through its argument.

RREETTUURRNN VVAALLUUEE
       If the representation was successfully stored, _f_e_g_e_t_e_n_v() shall return
       zero. Otherwise, it shall return a non-zero value.  If the environment
       was successfully established, _f_e_s_e_t_e_n_v() shall return zero. Otherwise,
       it shall return a non-zero value.
