A pointer to be filled in by device drivers with the driver private mapping data for the duplicated device mapping.
.RE

.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The system calls \fBdevmap_dup()\fR when a device mapping is duplicated, such as during the execution of the \fBfork\fR(2) system call.  The system expects \fBdevmap_dup()\fR to generate new driver private data for the new mapping, and to set \fInew_pvtp\fR to point to it. \fInew_dhp\fR is the handle of the new mapped object.
.sp
.LP
A non-zero return value from  \fBdevmap_dup()\fR will cause a corresponding operation such as \fBfork()\fR to fail.
.SH RETURN VALUES
.sp
.LP
\fBdevmap_dup()\fR returns the following values:
.sp
.ne 2
.mk
.na
\fB\fB0\fR \fR
.ad
.RS 12n
.rt  
Successful completion.
