USER_REGSET_SET_FN(9)						   Machine State					     USER_REGSET_SET_FN(9)

NAME
user_regset_set_fn - type of set function in struct user_regset SYNOPSIS
typedef int user_regset_set_fn(struct task_struct * target, const struct user_regset * regset, unsigned int pos, unsigned int count, const void * kbuf, const void __user * ubuf); ARGUMENTS
target thread being examined regset regset being examined pos offset into the regset data to access, in bytes count amount of data to copy, in bytes kbuf if not NULL, a kernel-space pointer to copy from ubuf if kbuf is NULL, a user-space pointer to copy from DESCRIPTION
Store register values. Return 0 on success; -EIO or -ENODEV are usual failure returns. The pos and count values are in bytes, but must be properly aligned. If kbuf is non-null, that buffer is used and ubuf is ignored. If kbuf is NULL, then ubuf gives a userland pointer to access directly, and an -EFAULT return value is possible.

The explain_ustat_or_die function is used to call the ustat(2) system call. On failure an explanation will be printed to stderr, obtained from the explain_ustat(3) function, and then the process terminates by calling exit(EXIT_FAILURE). The explain_ustat_on_error function is used to call the ustat(2) system call. On failure an explanation will be printed to stderr, obtained from the explain_ustat(3) function, but still returns to the caller. dev The dev, exactly as to be passed to the ustat(2) system call. ubuf The ubuf, exactly as to be passed to the ustat(2) system call. RETURN VALUE
The explain_ustat_or_die function only returns on success, see ustat(2) for more information. On failure, prints an explanation and exits, it does not return. The explain_ustat_on_error function always returns the value return by the wrapped ustat(2) system call. EXAMPLE
The explain_ustat_or_die function is intended to be used in a fashion similar to the following example: explain_ustat_or_die(dev, ubuf); SEE ALSO
