I believe Jakub was talking about kernel's ENOTSUPP (524) vs EOPNOTSUPP (95):

$ grep ENOTSUPP include/linux/errno.h
#define ENOTSUPP        524     /* Operation is not supported */

$ grep EOPNOTSUPP include/uapi/asm-generic/errno.h
#define EOPNOTSUPP      95      /* Operation not supported on transport 
endpoint */

These two are frequently confused.

OTOH, ENOTSUP looks like a userspace/libc invention:

$ grep -w ENOTSUP /usr/include/bits/errno.h
# ifndef ENOTSUP
#  define ENOTSUP               EOPNOTSUPP

I'm gonna stick to kernel's EOPNOTSUPP to make it look similar to what
we have on the kernel side.
