DESCRIPTION¶
Thefetch functions are designed to copy
small amounts of data from user-space.
The fetch routines provide the following
functionality:
fubyte()- Fetches a byte of data from the user-space address base.
fuword()- Fetches a word of data from the user-space address base.
fuword16()- Fetches 16 bits of data from the user-space address base.
fuword32()- Fetches 32 bits of data from the user-space address base.
fuword64()- Fetches 64 bits of data from the user-space address base.
fuswintr()- Fetches a short word of data from the user-space address base. This function is safe to call during an interrupt context.
RETURN VALUES¶
Thefetch functions return the data fetched
or -1 on failure.
