KSTRDUP(9)            DragonFly Kernel Developer's Manual           KSTRDUP(9)

NAME
     kstrdup, kstrndup -- save a copy of a string

SYNOPSIS
     #include <sys/malloc.h>

     char *
     kstrdup(const char *str, struct malloc_type *type);

     char *
     kstrndup(const char *str, size_t maxlen, struct malloc_type *type);

DESCRIPTION
     The kstrdup() function allocates sufficient memory of type type for a
     copy of the string str, does the copy, and returns a pointer to it.  The
     pointer may subsequently be used as an argument to the function kfree(9).

     The kstrndup() function copies at most maxlen characters from the string
     str and will always NUL terminate the copied string.
