BOOTSTRAP (kutils) functions
LIBRARY ROUTINE
kmemset - initialize bytes in dest to the character value 'c'
LIBRARY CALL
kaddr kmemset(
kaddr dest,
int c,
size_t num)
INPUT
- c - the character value to set in dest
- num - the number of bytes to be initialized
OUTPUT
- dest - the destination pointer to be initialized
RETURN VALUE
returns dest on success, NULL upon failure
DESCRIPTION
This function is the same as the system call memset().
Except kmemset() will make sure that the dest and the
the number of bytes to be initialized are greater than
0.
memset() initializes the bytes in the "dest" character
array to the character value "c". The number of bytes
to be set is determined by the parameter "num".
