PR_CREAT(3PROC) Process Control Library Functions PR_CREAT(3PROC)
NAME
pr_exit - inject exit system call into victim process
LIBRARY
Process Control Library (libproc, -lproc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <libproc.h> int pr_exit(
struct ps_prochandle *P,
int status);
DESCRIPTION
The
pr_exit() function injects the
exit(2) system call into the target
process
P by means of the agent LWP. If the process handle
P is NULL then
this is equivalent to calling
exit(2) on the currently running process.
The argument
status has the same meaning as in
exit(2). See
exit(2) for
the full description and purpose of the
exit system call and its arguments.
The
pr_exit() function only works on active processes. Process handles
that correspond to core files, zombie processes, or ELF objects do not
support system call injection.
RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, the
pr_exit() function's return value is that
described in
exit(2). Otherwise,
-1 is returned and
errno is set to ENOSYS
to indicate that the system call could not be injected.
If the
pr_exit() function is called with the value of
P set to NULL, then
the function will not return.
ERRORS
For the full list of errors see the
ERRORS section in
exit(2).
The
pr_exit() function will fail if:
ENOSYS An error occurred while trying to invoke the agent LWP
and inject a system call in the process handle
P or the
process handle
P does not support system call injection.
