31.Sh DESCRIPTION
32The
33.Fn pr_open
34function injects the
35.Xr open 2
36system call into the target process
37.Fa P
38by means of the agent LWP.
39If the process handle
40.Fa P
41is the value
42.Dv NULL
43then this will be equivalent to calling
44.Xr open 2
45on the currently running process.

57.Sy open
58system call and its arguments.
59.Pp
60The
61.Fn pr_open
62function only works on active processes.

64do not support system call injection.
65.Sh RETURN VALUES
66Upon successful completion, the
67.Fn pr_open
68function's return value is that described in
69.Xr open 2 .
70Otherwise,
71.Sy -1

76to indicate that the system call could not be injected.
