This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual. The Linux implementation of this interface

Application Usage

       None.

Description

       The  functionality  described  on  this  reference  page is aligned with the ISO C standard. Any conflict
       between the requirements described  here  and  the  ISO C  standard  is  unintentional.  This  volume  of
       POSIX.1‐2017 defers to the ISO C standard.

       The  memmove() function shall copy n bytes from the object pointed to by s2 into the object pointed to by
       s1.  Copying takes place as if the n bytes from the object pointed to by  s2  are  first  copied  into  a
       temporary  array  of  n  bytes  that does not overlap the objects pointed to by s1 and s2, and then the n
       bytes from the temporary array are copied into the object pointed to by s1.

Errors

       No errors are defined.

Examples

Future Directions

       None.

Name

       memmove — copy bytes in memory with overlapping areas

Prolog

       This  manual  page  is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The Linux implementation of this interface
       may differ (consult the corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the  interface
       may not be implemented on Linux.

Rationale

       None.

Return Value

       The memmove() function shall return s1; no return value is reserved to indicate an error.
