An example of the usage I am talking about:
xxx_write(...)
{
...
amount =3D MIN(uio->uio_resid, // 0. This is the no of bytes in the uio le=
ft to write
(BUFFER_SIZE - 1 - uio->uio_offset > 0) ?
BUFFER_SIZE - 1 - uio->uio_offset : 0); // 1. amount to write =
is computed
//assuming write will happen at uio_offset in sc_buffer
if (amount =3D=3D 0)
return (error);
error =3D uiomove(sc->sc_buffer, amount, uio); // 2. sc_buffer is not offs=
et
...
}
xxx_read(...)
{
...
amount =3D MIN(uio->uio_resid,
(sc->sc_length - uio->uio_offset > 0) ?
sc->sc_length - uio->uio_offset : 0); // 3. Same as comment 1 =
above
error =3D uiomove(sc->sc_buffer + uio->uio_offset, amount, uio); // 4. Here=
buffer is offset
...
}
