+Tag: exit-in-shared-library
+Severity: info
+Check: libraries/shared/exit
+Experimental: yes
+Renamed-From:
+ shlib-calls-exit
+Explanation: The listed shared library calls the C library exit() or &lowbar;exit()
+ functions.
+ .
+ In the case of an error, the library should instead return an appropriate
+ error code to the calling program which can then determine how to handle
+ the error, including performing any required clean-up.
+ .
+ In most cases, removing the call should be discussed with upstream,
+ particularly as it may produce an ABI change.
