The .Fn uprintf function outputs to the currect process' controlling tty, while .Fn printf will write to the console as well as the logging facility. .Fn tprintf on the other hand will output to the associated tty found from the .Fa struct proc *p parameter, but will also write to the logging facility if the .Fa int pri value is not -1. .Pp Each of these related functions all use the .Fa const char *fmt parameters in the same manner as the libc .Fn printf function. .Pp .El .Sh RETURN VALUES The .Fn uprintf and the .Fn printf functions both return 0 on success as well as on failure. .El .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr printf 3help
