It serves a purpose in systems where there is * a penalty for copies to between user and kernel space, but really * nothing in NuttX but provide some Linux compatible (and adding * another 'almost standard' interface). * * NOTE: This interface is *not* specified in POSIX.1-2001, or other * standards. The implementation here is very similar to the Linux * sendfile interface. Other UNIX systems implement sendfile() with * different semantics and prototypes. sendfile() should not be used * in portable programs. * * Input Parameters: * infd - A file (or socket) descriptor opened for reading * outfd - A descriptor opened for writing. * offset - If 'offset' is not NULL, then it points to a variable * holding the file offset from which sendfile() will start * reading data from 'infd'. When sendfile() returns, this * variable will be set to the offset of the byte following * the last byte that was read. If 'offset' is not NULL, * then sendfile() does not modify the current file offset of * 'infd'; otherwise the current file offset is adjusted to * reflect the number of bytes read from 'infd.' * * If 'offset' is NULL, then data will be read from 'infd' * starting at the current file offset, and the file offset * will be updated by the call. * count - The number of bytes to copy between the file descriptors. * * Returned Value: * If the transfer was successful, the number of bytes written to outfd is * returned. On error, -1 is returned, and errno is set appropriately. * There error values are those returned by read() or write() plus: * * EINVAL - Bad input parameters. * ENOMEM - Could not allocated an I/O buffer * ****************************************************************************/ ssize_t sendfile(int outfd, int infd, FAR off_t *offset, size_t count); #undef EXTERN #if defined(__cplusplus) } #endif #endif /* __INCLUDE_SYS_SENDFILE_H */
