+.SH DESCRIPTION
+For
+\fIwcsrtombs\fR():
+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\(hy2017 defers to the ISO\ C standard.
+.P
+The
+\fIwcsrtombs\fR()
+function shall convert a sequence of wide characters from the array
+indirectly pointed to by
+.IR src
+into a sequence of corresponding characters, beginning in the
+conversion state described by the object pointed to by
+.IR ps .
+If
+.IR dst
+is not a null pointer, the converted characters shall then be
+stored into the array pointed to by
+.IR dst .
+Conversion continues up to and including a terminating null wide
+character, which shall also be stored. Conversion shall stop
+earlier in the following cases:
+.IP " *" 4
+When a code is reached that does not correspond to a valid character
+.IP " *" 4
+When the next character would exceed the limit of
+.IR len
+total bytes to be stored in the array pointed to by
+.IR dst
+(and
+.IR dst
+is not a null pointer)
+.P
+Each conversion shall take place as if by a call to the
+\fIwcrtomb\fR()
+function.
+.P
+If
+.IR dst
+is not a null pointer, the pointer object pointed to by
+.IR src
+shall be assigned either a null pointer (if conversion stopped due to
+reaching a terminating null wide character) or the address just past
+the last wide character converted (if any). If conversion stopped due
+to reaching a terminating null wide character, the resulting state
+described shall be the initial conversion state.
+.P
+If
+.IR ps
+is a null pointer, the
+\fIwcsrtombs\fR()
+function shall use its own internal
+.BR mbstate_t
+object, which is initialized at program start-up to the initial
+conversion state. Otherwise, the
+.BR mbstate_t
+object pointed to by
+.IR ps
+shall be used to completely describe the current conversion state of
+the associated character sequence.
+.P
+The
+\fIwcsnrtombs\fR()
+and
+\fIwcsrtombs\fR()
+functions need not be thread-safe if called with a NULL
+.IR ps
+argument.
+.P
+The
+\fIwcsnrtombs\fR()
+function shall be equivalent to the
+\fIwcsrtombs\fR()
+function, except that the conversion is limited to the first
+.IR nwc
+wide characters.
+.P
+The
+\fIwcsrtombs\fR()
+function shall not change the setting of
+.IR errno
+if successful.
+.P
+The behavior of these functions shall be affected by the
+.IR LC_CTYPE
+category of the current locale.
+.P
+The implementation shall behave as if no function defined in System Interfaces volume of POSIX.1\(hy2017
+calls these functions.
+.SH "RETURN VALUE"
+If conversion stops because a code is reached that does not correspond
+to a valid character, an encoding error occurs. In this case, these
+functions shall store the value of the macro
+.BR [EILSEQ]
+in
+.IR errno
+and return (\fBsize_t\fP)\-1; the conversion state is undefined.
+Otherwise, these functions shall return the number of bytes in the
+resulting character sequence, not including the terminating null (if any).
+.SH ERRORS
+These functions shall fail if:
+.TP
+.BR EILSEQ
+A wide-character code does not correspond to a valid character.
+.P
+These functions may fail if:
+.TP
+.BR EINVAL
+.IR ps
+points to an object that contains an invalid conversion state.
