NAME
bcopy —
copy byte string
SYNOPSIS
#include
<sys/systm.h>
void
bcopy(const
void *src, void
*dst, size_t
len);
DESCRIPTION
The
bcopy()
interface is obsolete. Do not add new code using it. It will soon be purged.
Use memcpy(9) instead. (The bcopy() function is now
a macro for memcpy(9).)The
bcopy()
function copies len bytes from string
src to string dst.
Unlike
bcopy(3) the two strings must not overlap!
In the traditional BSD kernel, overlapping copies were
handled by the now-purged
ovbcopy()
function. If you need to copy overlapping data, see
memmove(9).
If len is zero, no bytes are copied.
