- Fix for possible unset uid/gid in toproto - Fix for default mtree style - Update libelf - Importing libexecinfo - Resynchronize GCC, mpc, gmp, mpfr - build.sh: Replace params with show-params. This has been done as the make target has been renamed in the same way, while a new target named params has been added. This new target generates a file containing all the parameters, instead of printing it on the console. - Update test48 with new etc/services (Fix by Ben Gras <ben@minix3.org) get getservbyport() out of the inner loop Change-Id: Ie6ad5226fa2621ff9f0dee8782ea48f9443d2091

.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In string.h
|
|
.Ft void *
|
|
.Fn memset "void *b" "int c" "size_t len"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn memset
|
|
function
|
|
writes
|
|
.Fa len
|
|
bytes of value
|
|
.Fa c
|
|
(converted to an unsigned char) to the string
|
|
.Fa b .
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn memset
|
|
function
|
|
returns the original value of
|
|
.Fa b .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Note that the compiler may optimize away a call to
|
|
.Fn memset
|
|
if it can prove that the string will not be used by the program again,
|
|
for example if it is allocated on the stack and about to out of scope.
|
|
If you want to guarantee that zeros are written to memory, for example
|
|
to sanitize a buffer holding a cryptographic secret, use
|
|
.Xr explicit_memset 3 .
|
|
