     BSTRING(3X)                                           BSTRING(3X)



     NAME
          bcopy, bcmp, bzero - bit and byte string operations

     SYNOPSIS
          bcopy(src, dst, length)
          char *src, *dst;
          int length;

          bcmp(b1, b2, length)
          char *b1, *b2;
          int length;

          bzero(b, length)
          char *b;
          int length;

     DESCRIPTION
          The functions bcopy, bcmp, and bzero operate on variable
          length strings of bytes.  They do not check for null bytes
          as the routines in string(3) do.

          Bcopy copies length bytes from string src to the string dst.

          Bcmp compares byte string b1 against byte string b2,
          returning zero if they are identical, non-zero otherwise.
          Both strings are assumed to be length bytes long.
