48.Sh DESCRIPTION
49This entry point copies a byte range from one regular file to another within a
50file system.
51.Pp
52The arguments are:
53.Bl -tag -width ioflag
54.It Fa invp
55The vnode of the input file.
56.It Fa inoff
57A pointer to the file offset for the input file.
58.It Fa outvp
59The vnode of the output file.
60.It Fa outoff
61A pointer to the file offset for the output file.
62.It Fa len
63A pointer to the number of bytes to be copied.
64.It Fa flags
65Flags, should be set to 0 for now.
66.It Fa incred
67The credentials used to read
68.Fa invp .
69.It Fa outcred
70The credentials used to write
71.Fa outvp .
72.It Fa fsize_td
73The thread pointer to be passed to vn_rlimit_fsize().
74This will be
75.Dv NULL
76for a server thread without limits, such as for the NFS
77server or
78.Dv curthread
79otherwise.
80.El
81.Pp
82On entry and on return, the
83.Fa inoff
84and
85.Fa outoff
86arguments point to the locations of the file offsets.
87These file offsets should be updated by the number of bytes copied.
88The
89.Fa len
90argument points to the location that stores the number of bytes
91to be copied.
92It should be reduced by the number of bytes copied, which implies that
93the value pointed to by
94.Fa len
95will normally be zero for a non-error return.
96However, a copy of fewer bytes than requested is permitted.
97.Sh LOCKS
98The vnode are unlocked on entry and must be unlocked on return.
99The byte ranges for both
100.Fa invp
101and
102.Fa outvp
103should be range locked when this call is done.
104.Sh RETURN VALUES
105Zero is returned on success, otherwise an error code is returned.
106.Sh ERRORS
107.Bl -tag -width Er
108.It Bq Er EFBIG
109If the copy exceeds the process's file size limit or the maximum file size
110for the file system
111.Fa invp
112and
113.Fa outvp
114reside on.
115.It Bq Er EINTR
116A signal interrupted the VOP call before it could be completed.
117.It Bq Er EIO
118An I/O error occurred while reading/writing the files.
119.It Bq Er ENOSPC
120The file system is full.
