Using functions you can not return a table.

However you can use stored procedure to return the table.

 DELIMITER $$

 CREATE DEFINER=`root`@`%` PROCEDURE `sp_Name`(OUT po_ErrMessage   VARCHAR(200))
 BEGIN
 DECLARE EXIT HANDLER FOR SQLEXCEPTION
 BEGIN
SET po_ErrMessage = 'Error in procedure sp_Name';
 END;

 SELECT * FROM table_name;
END
