+.SH DESCRIPTION
+These functions return the error function of
+.IR x ,
+defined as
+.PP
+.in +4n
+.EX
+erf(x) = 2/sqrt(pi) * integral from 0 to x of exp(\-t*t) dt
+.EE
+.in
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+On success, these functions return the value of the error function of
+.IR x ,
+a value in the range [\-1,\ 1].
+.PP
+If
+.I x
+is a NaN, a NaN is returned.
+.PP
+If
+.I x
+is +0 (\-0), +0 (\-0) is returned.
+.PP
+If
+.I x
+is positive infinity (negative infinity),
++1 (\-1) is returned.
+.PP
+If
+.I x
+is subnormal,
+a range error occurs,
+and the return value is 2*x/sqrt(pi).
+.SH ERRORS
+See
+.BR math_error (7)
+for information on how to determine whether an error has occurred
+when calling these functions.
+.PP
+The following errors can occur:
+.TP
+Range error: result underflow (\fIx\fP is subnormal)
+.\" .I errno
+.\" is set to
+.\" .BR ERANGE .
+An underflow floating-point exception
+.RB ( FE_UNDERFLOW )
+is raised.
+.PP
+These functions do not set
+.IR errno .
+.\" It is intentional that these functions do not set errno for this case
+.\" see https://www.sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6785
