COPY(9)                  BSD Kernel Developer's Manual                 COPY(9)

NAME
     copy, copyin, copyinstr, copyout, copystr -- kernel copy functions

SYNOPSIS
     #include <sys/types.h>
     #include <sys/systm.h>

     int
     copyin(const void *uaddr, void *kaddr, size_t len);

     int
     copyinstr(const void *uaddr, void *kaddr, size_t len, size_t *done);

     int
     copyout(const void *kaddr, void *uaddr, size_t len);

     int
     copystr(const void *kfaddr, void *kdaddr, size_t len, size_t *done);

DESCRIPTION
     The copy functions are designed to copy contiguous data from one address to another.  All but copystr()
     copy data from user-space to kernel-space or vice-versa.

     The copy routines provide the following functionality:

     copyin()      Copies len bytes of data from the user-space address uaddr to the kernel-space address
                   kaddr.

     copyinstr()   Copies a NUL-terminated string, at most len bytes long, from user-space address uaddr to
                   kernel-space address kaddr.  The number of bytes actually copied, including the terminat-ing terminating
                   ing NUL, is returned in *done.

     copyout()     Copies len bytes of data from the kernel-space address kaddr to the user-space address
                   uaddr.

     copystr()     Copies a NUL-terminated string, at most len bytes long, from kernel-space address kfaddr
                   to kernel-space address kdaddr.  The number of bytes actually copied, including the ter-minating terminating
                   minating NUL, is returned in *done.

RETURN VALUES
     The copy functions return 0 on success or the following error on failure:

     [EFAULT]           If a bad address is encountered. When this error is returned, the contents of the
                        destination buffer ( *kaddr for copyin(), copyinstr(), and copystr(); *uaddr for
                        copyout()) are undefined. For copyinstr() and copystr(), the contents of the *done
                        parameter are also undefined on a return of EFAULT.

     In addition to EFAULT, copystr() and copyinstr() on failure will return:

     [ENAMETOLONG]      When the string is longer than len bytes. On this error return, the destination
                        buffer is not null-terminated, but the *done parameter is maintained.
