.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm
functions are designed to copy contiguous data from one address
to another.
All but
.Fn copystr
copy data from user-space to kernel-space or vice-versa.
.Pp
The
.Nm
routines provide the following functionality:
.Bl -tag -width "copyout_proc()"
.It Fn copyin
Copies
.Fa len
bytes of data from the user-space address
.Fa uaddr
in the current process to the kernel-space address
.Fa kaddr .
.It Fn copyout
Copies
.Fa len
bytes of data from the kernel-space address
.Fa kaddr
to the user-space address
.Fa uaddr
in the current process.
.It Fn copystr
Copies a NUL-terminated string, at most
.Fa len
bytes long, from kernel-space address
.Fa kfaddr
to kernel-space address
.Fa kdaddr .
If the
.Fa done
argument is non-NULL,
the number of bytes actually copied, including the terminating
NUL, is returned in
.Fa *done .
.It Fn copyinstr
Copies a NUL-terminated string, at most
.Fa len
bytes long, from user-space address
.Fa uaddr
in the current process to kernel-space address
.Fa kaddr .
If the
.Fa done
argument is non-NULL,
the number of bytes actually copied, including the terminating
NUL, is returned in
.Fa *done .
.It Fn copyoutstr
Copies a NUL-terminated string, at most
.Fa len
bytes long, from kernel-space address
.Fa kaddr
to user-space address
.Fa uaddr
in the current process.
If the
.Fa done
argument is non-NULL,
the number of bytes actually copied, including the terminating
NUL, is returned in
.Fa *done .
.It Fn copyin_proc
Like
.Fn copyin ,
except it operates on the address space of the process
.Fa p .
.It Fn copyout_proc
Like
.Fn copyout ,
except it operates on the address space of the process
.Fa p .
.It Fn ioctl_copyin
Like
.Fn copyin ,
except it operates on kernel addresses when the
.Dv FKIOCTL
flag is passed in
.Fa ioctlflags
from the ioctl call.
.It Fn ioctl_copyout
Like
.Fn copyout ,
except it operates on kernel addresses when the
.Dv FKIOCTL
flag is passed in
.Fa ioctlflags
from the ioctl call.
.El
.Sh RETURN VALUES
The
.Nm
functions return 0 on success or
.Er EFAULT
if a bad address is encountered.
In addition, the
.Fn copystr ,
.Fn copyinstr ,
and
.Fn copyoutstr
functions return
.Er ENAMETOOLONG
if the string is longer than
.Fa len
bytes.
