============
Warns on unused function return values. Many of the standard library functions
return a value that indicates if the call was successful. Ignoring the returned
value can cause unexpected behavior if an error has occurred. The following
functions are checked:
* aligned_alloc()
* asctime_s()
* at_quick_exit()
* atexit()
* bsearch()
* bsearch_s()
* btowc()
* c16rtomb()
* c32rtomb()
* calloc()
* clock()

This check is an alias of check :doc:`bugprone-unused-return-value <../bugprone/unused-return-value>`
with a fixed set of functions.
Suppressing issues by casting to ``void`` is enabled by default and can be
disabled by setting `AllowCastToVoid` option to ``false``.
The check corresponds to a part of CERT C Coding Standard rule `ERR33-C.
Detect and handle standard library errors
<https://wiki.sei.cmu.edu/confluence/display/c/ERR33-C.+Detect+and+handle+standard+library+errors>`_.
The list of checked functions is taken from the rule, with following exception:
* The check can not differentiate if a function is called with ``NULL``
argument. Therefore the following functions are not checked:
``mblen``, ``mbrlen``, ``mbrtowc``, ``mbtowc``, ``wctomb``, ``wctomb_s``
