NAME

       bp_copyout - copy from a driver buffer into a buf(9S)

SYNOPSIS

       #include <sys/types.h>
       #include <sys/buf.h>

       int bp_copyout(void *driverbuf, struct buf *bp, offset_t offset,
	    size_t size);

INTERFACE LEVEL

       Architecture independent level 1 (DDI/DKI).

PARAMETERS

       bp	    Pointer to the buffer header structure to copy to.

       driverbuf    Driver buffer to copy from.

       offset	    Offset into bp where to start copying.

       size	    Size of copy.

DESCRIPTION

       The  bp_copyout()  function copies size bytes starting from the driver buffer driverbuf to offset bytes into the memory associated with bp.
       The offset only applies to bp.

RETURN VALUES

       Under normal conditions, 0 is returned to indicate a successful copy. Otherwise, -1 is returned if bp references invalid pages.

CONTEXT

       The bp_copyout() function can be called from user or kernel context only.
