     25 DESCRIPTION
     26 </b><br>
     27 <P>
     28 The <i>bytes</i> argument must point to a serialized byte stream that was
     29 originally created by <b>pcre2_serialize_encode()</b> (though it may have been
     30 saved on disc or elsewhere in the meantime). The function returns the number of
     31 serialized patterns in the byte stream, or one of the following negative error
     32 codes:
     33 <pre>
     34   PCRE2_ERROR_BADMAGIC  mismatch of id bytes in <i>bytes</i>
     35   PCRE2_ERROR_BADMODE   mismatch of variable unit size or PCRE version
     36   PCRE2_ERROR_NULL      the argument is NULL
     37 </pre>
     38 PCRE2_ERROR_BADMAGIC may mean that the data is corrupt, or that it was compiled
     39 on a system with different endianness.
