KVM_GETERR(3) BSD Library Functions Manual KVM_GETERR(3)
NAME
kvm_geterr -- get error message on kvm descriptor
LIBRARY
Kernel Data Access Library (libkvm, -lkvm)
SYNOPSIS
#include <kvm.h>
char *
kvm_geterr(kvm_t *kd);
DESCRIPTION
This function returns a string describing the most recent error condition on the descriptor kd. The results are undefined if the most recent
kvm(3) library call did not produce an error. The string returned is stored in memory owned by kvm(3) so the message should be copied out
and saved elsewhere if necessary.
SEE ALSO
kvm(3), kvm_close(3), kvm_getargv(3), kvm_getenvv(3), kvm_getprocs(3), kvm_nlist(3), kvm_open(3), kvm_openfiles(3), kvm_read(3), kvm_write(3)
BUGS
This routine cannot be used to access error conditions due to a failed kvm_openfiles() call, since failure is indicated by returning a NULL
descriptor. Therefore, errors on open are output to the special error buffer passed to kvm_openfiles(). This option is not available to
kvm_open().
