COREDUMP_WRITE(9)	 BSD Kernel Developer's Manual	     COREDUMP_WRITE(9)

NAME
     coredump_write — common coredump write routine

SYNOPSIS
     #include <sys/signalvar.h>

     int
     coredump_write(void *iocookie, enum uio_seg segflg, const void *data,
	 size_t len);

DESCRIPTION
     coredump_write() is used by both machine-dependent and machine-indepen‐
     dent components to write information to a coredump.  iocookie is an
     opaque pointer that was supplied to the caller of coredump_write().
     segflg indicates where the data is located, system space or user space.
     data points to the information to be written to the coredump.  len is the
     amount of data to be written.

     coredump_write() returns 0 on success and an appropriate error code on
     failure.

CODE REFERENCES
     Process core dumps are initiated within the file sys/kern/kern_sig.c.
     Process core dumps for ELF NetBSD binaries are performed within the files
     sys/kern/core_elf32.c or sys/kern/core_elf64.c.  Process core dumps for
     other NetBSD binaries are performed within the file
     sys/kern/core_netbsd.c.
