+/// This module implements a simple error type to match the errors that can be thrown from the C
+/// functions as well as some extra errors resulting from internal validations.
+///
+/// As this crate exposes an opinionated API to the POSIX queues certain errors have been
+/// ignored:
+///
+/// * ETIMEDOUT: The low-level timed functions are not exported and this error can not occur.
+/// * EAGAIN: Non-blocking queue calls are not supported.
+/// * EINVAL: Same reason as ETIMEDOUT
+/// * EMSGSIZE: The message size is immutable after queue creation and this crate checks it.
+/// * ENAMETOOLONG: This crate performs name validation
+///
+/// If an unexpected error is encountered it will be wrapped appropriately and should be reported
+/// as a bug on https://github.com/aprilabank/posix_mq.rs
