The dofileread
() function attempts to read
nbytes of data from the object referenced by file
entry fp into the buffer pointed to by
buf. The dofilewrite
()
function attempts to write nbytes of data to the
object referenced by file entry fp from the buffer
pointed to by buf.
The dofilereadv
() and
dofilewritev
() functions perform the same
operations, but scatter the data with the iovcnt
buffers specified by the members of the iov array.
The offset of the file operations is explicitly specified by *offset. The new file offset after the file operation is returned in *offset. If the FOF_UPDATE_OFFSET flag is specified in the flags argument, the file offset in the file entry fp is updated to reflect the new file offset, otherwise it remains unchanged after the operation.
The file descriptor fd is largely unused except for use by the ktrace framework for reporting to userlevel the process's file descriptor.
Upon successful completion the number of bytes which were transferred is returned in *retval.
