       may differ (consult the corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the  interface
       may not be implemented on Linux.

Rationale

       See the RATIONALE section for posix_openpt().

Return Value

       Upon  successful  completion,  unlockpt()  shall return 0. Otherwise, it shall return -1 and set errno to
       indicate the error.
