NAME
bzero —
write zeroes to a byte
string
SYNOPSIS
#include
<sys/systm.h>
void
bzero(void
*b, size_t
len);
DESCRIPTION
The
bzero()
interface is obsolete. Do not add new code using it. It will soon be purged.
Use memset(9) instead. (The bzero() function is now
a macro for memset(9).)The
bzero()
function writes len zero bytes to the string
b. If len is zero,
bzero() does nothing.
