// ErrWrapper is our error wrapper for Go errors. The key objective of
// this structure is to properly set Failure, which is also returned by
// the Error() method, so be one of the OONI defined strings.
type ErrWrapper struct {
// Failure is the OONI failure string. The failure strings are
// loosely backward compatible with Measurement Kit.
//
// This is either one of the FailureXXX strings or any other
// string like `unknown_failure ...`. The latter represents an
// error that we have not yet mapped to a failure.
Failure string
// Operation is the operation that failed. If possible, it
// SHOULD be a _major_ operation. Major operations are:
//
// - ResolveOperation: resolving a domain name failed
// - ConnectOperation: connecting to an IP failed
// - TLSHandshakeOperation: TLS handshaking failed
// - HTTPRoundTripOperation: other errors during round trip
//
// Because a network connection doesn't necessarily know
// what is the current major operation we also have the
// following _minor_ operations:
//
// - CloseOperation: CLOSE failed
// - ReadOperation: READ failed
// - WriteOperation: WRITE failed
//
// If an ErrWrapper referring to a major operation is wrapping
// another ErrWrapper and such ErrWrapper already refers to
// a major operation, then the new ErrWrapper should use the
// child ErrWrapper major operation. Otherwise, it should use
// its own major operation. This way, the topmost wrapper is
// supposed to refer to the major operation that failed.
Operation string
// WrappedErr is the error that we're wrapping.
WrappedErr error

// Error returns a description of the error that occurred.
