.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In kvm.h
|
|
.Ft ssize_t
|
|
.Fn kvm_read "kvm_t *kd" "unsigned long addr" "void *buf" "size_t nbytes"
|
|
.Ft ssize_t
|
|
.Fn kvm_read2 "kvm_t *kd" "kvaddr_t addr" "void *buf" "size_t nbytes"
|
|
.Ft ssize_t
|
|
.Fn kvm_write "kvm_t *kd" "unsigned long addr" "const void *buf" "size_t nbytes"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn kvm_read ,
|
|
.Fn kvm_read2 ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn kvm_write
|
|
functions are used to read and write kernel virtual memory (or a crash
|
|
dump file).
|
|
See
|
|
.Fn kvm_open 3
|
|
for information regarding opening kernel virtual memory and crash dumps.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn kvm_read
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn kvm_read2
|
|
functions transfer
|
|
.Fa nbytes
|
|
bytes of data from
|
|
the kernel space address
|
|
.Fa addr
|
|
to
|
|
.Fa buf .
|
|
Conversely,
|
|
.Fn kvm_write
|
|
transfers data from
|
|
.Fa buf
|
|
to
|
|
.Fa addr .
|
|
Unlike their SunOS counterparts, these functions cannot be used to
|
|
read or write process address spaces.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn kvm_read2
|
|
function uses a different type
|
|
.Pq Vt kvaddr_t
|
|
for the
|
|
.Fa addr
|
|
argument to allow use of addresses larger than
|
|
.Dv ULONG_MAX
|
|
when examining non-native kernel images.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
Upon success, the number of bytes actually transferred is returned.
|
|
Otherwise, -1 is returned.
