See +.BR libsimple_enprintf (3) +for more information. +.PP +The +.BR libsimple_strdupa () +function is implemented as a macro and is a version +of the +.BR strdup (3) +function that uses allocates the memory on the stack +rather than on the heap, causing the return pointer +to become invalid when the calling function returns. +.SH RETURN VALUE +Upon successful completion, the +.BR libsimple_strdupa (), +.BR libsimple_enstrdup (), +and +.BR libsimple_estrdup () +functions return a non-null pointer, on failure the +.BR libsimple_enstrdup (), +and +.BR libsimple_estrdup () +functions exit the process group. The +.BR libsimple_strdupa () +function cannot fail, however the kernel +can kill the process with a +.B SIGSEGV +signal if the memory cannot be allocated. +.PP +The returned pointer should be deallocated when it +is no longer needed, except for the pointer returned +by the +.BR libsimple_strdupa () +function, it is automatically deallocated when the +calling function returns. +.SH ERRORS +None. +.SH ATTRIBUTES +For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see +.BR attributes (7). +.TS +allbox; +lb lb lb +l l l. +Interface Attribute Value +T{ +.BR libsimple_strdupa (), +.br +.BR libsimple_enstrdup (), +.br +.BR libsimple_estrdup (), +T} Thread safety MT-Safe +T{ +.BR libsimple_strdupa (), +.br +.BR libsimple_enstrdup (), +.br +.BR libsimple_estrdup (), +T} Async-signal safety AS-Safe +T{ +.BR libsimple_strdupa (), +.br +.BR libsimple_enstrdup (), +.br +.BR libsimple_estrdup (), +T} Async-cancel safety AC-Safe +.TE +.SH EXAMPLES +None. +.SH APPLICATION USAGE +None. +.SH RATIONALE +None. +.SH FUTURE DIRECTIONS +None. +.SH NOTES +None. +.SH BUGS +None. +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR libsimple_enstrndup (3), +.BR libsimple_memdup (3), +.BR libsimple_aligned_memdup (3), +.BR strndup (3), +.BR strdup (3) |
