+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+functions are designed to copy contiguous data from one address space
+to another.
+.Pp
+.Fn copystr
+is deprecated and should be replaced with
+.Xr strlcpy 9 .
+It will be removed from
+.Fx 13 .
+.Pp
+The
+.Fn copyin
+and
+.Fn copyin_nofault
+functions copy
+.Fa len
+bytes of data from the user-space address
+.Fa uaddr
+to the kernel-space address
+.Fa kaddr .
+.Pp
+The
+.Fn copyout
+and
+.Fn copyout_nofault
+functions copy
+.Fa len
+bytes of data from the kernel-space address
+.Fa kaddr
+to the user-space address
+.Fa uaddr .
+.Pp
+The
+.Fn copyin_nofault
+and
+.Fn copyout_nofault
+functions require that the kernel-space and user-space data be
+accessible without incurring a page fault.
+The source and destination addresses must be physically mapped for
+read and write access, respectively, and neither the source nor
+destination addresses may be pageable.
+.Pp
+The
+.Fn copystr
+function copies a NUL-terminated string, at most
+.Fa len
+bytes long, from kernel-space address
+.Fa kfaddr
+to kernel-space address
+.Fa kdaddr .
+The number of bytes actually copied, including the terminating
+NUL, is returned in
+.Fa *done
+(if
+.Fa done
+is
+.No non- Ns Dv NULL ) .
+.Pp
+The
+.Fn copyinstr
+function copies a NUL-terminated string, at most
+.Fa len
+bytes long, from user-space address
+.Fa uaddr
+to kernel-space address
+.Fa kaddr .
+The number of bytes actually copied, including the terminating
+NUL, is returned in
+.Fa *done
+(if
+.Fa done
+is
+.No non- Ns Dv NULL ) .
+.Sh RETURN VALUES
+The
+.Nm
+functions return 0 on success.
+All but
+.Fn copystr
+return
+.Er EFAULT
+if a bad address is encountered.
+The
+.Fn copyin_nofault
+and
+.Fn copyout_nofault
+functions return
+.Er EFAULT
+if a page fault occurs.
+The
+.Fn copystr
+and
+.Fn copyinstr
+functions return
+.Er ENAMETOOLONG
+if the string is longer than
+.Fa len
+bytes.
