> So basically, what you're actually saying is that we should add
additional errors up the call stack... so if some function called
OPENSSL_zalloc(), it should be perfectly OK to raise a
ERR_R_MALLOC_FAILURE, but functions above should *add* things like
WHATEVER_R_KEY_CREATE_FAILURE, etc etc etc, thereby creating that
backtrace that Tim talks about.
Yes.
BUT AGAIN, that's a separate issue to the main thread of function names in errors. Because, as you point out in the second paragraph (which I did not repost), there are still many issues to resolve with that.
