63.Sh DESCRIPTION
64The
65.Nm
66functions are designed to copy small amounts of data to user-space.
67.Pp
68The
69.Nm
70routines provide the following functionality:
71.Bl -tag -width "suswintr()"
72.It Fn subyte
73Stores a byte of data to the user-space address
74.Pa base .
75.It Fn suword
76Stores a word of data to the user-space address
77.Pa base .
78.It Fn suword16
79Stores 16 bits of of data to the user-space address
80.Pa base .
81.It Fn suword32
82Stores 32 bits of of data to the user-space address
83.Pa base .
84.It Fn suword64
85Stores 64 bits of of data to the user-space address
86.Pa base .
87.It Fn suswintr
88Stores a short word of data to the user-space address
89.Pa base .
90This function is safe to call during an interrupt context.
91.El
92.Sh RETURN VALUES
93The
94.Nm
95functions return 0 on success or -1 on failure.
