KCOPY(9)               NetBSD Kernel Developer's Manual               KCOPY(9)


NAME
kcopy -- copy data with abort on page fault
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/systm.h> int kcopy(const void *src, void *dst, size_t len);
DESCRIPTION
kcopy() copies len bytes from src to dst, aborting if a fatal page fault is encountered. kcopy() must save and restore the old fault handler since it is called by uiomove(9), which may be in the path of servicing a non-fatal page fault.
RETURN VALUES
kcopy() returns 0 on success and an error number on failure.
