 There is no general C convention for return values, but `memcmp` and
 `strcmp` return a negative value if their first argument is less than the
 second argument, zero if the arguments are equal, and a positive value if
 their first argument is greater than the second argument.  `strcasecmpend`
 is related to `strcmp`.  Perhaps it should be replaced with `strcaseeqend`
 in Tor.  (Tor implements a `tor_memeq` function which returns non-zero iff
 its arguments are equal; it additionally runs in data-independent time to
 avoid side-channel leaks.)

 That is what the man page says.
