<p align=center><b>Release 3.3: memp_fget, EIO</b></p>
<p>Previous releases of Berkeley DB returned the system error EIO when the
memp_fget function was called to retrieve a page, the page did not
exist, and the <a href="../../api_c/memp_fget.html#DB_MPOOL_CREATE">DB_MPOOL_CREATE</a> flag was not set. In the 3.3
release, the error <a href="../../api_c/memp_fget.html#DB_PAGE_NOTFOUND">DB_PAGE_NOTFOUND</a> is returned instead, to
allow applications to distinguish between recoverable and
non-recoverable errors. Applications calling the memp_fget function
and checking for a return of EIO should check for
<a href="../../api_c/memp_fget.html#DB_PAGE_NOTFOUND">DB_PAGE_NOTFOUND</a> instead.</p>
<p>Previous releases of Berkeley DB treated filesystem I/O failure (the most
common of which the filesystem running out of space), as a fatal error,
returning <a href="../../ref/program/errorret.html#DB_RUNRECOVERY">DB_RUNRECOVERY</a>. When a filesystem failure happens in
the 3.3 release Berkeley DB returns the underlying system error (usually EIO),
but can continue to run. Applications should abort any enclosing
transaction when a recoverable system error occurs in order to recover
from the error.</p>
