39*5e3eaea3SApple OSS Distributions<h3>DESCRIPTION</h3>
40*5e3eaea3SApple OSS Distributions<p>
41*5e3eaea3SApple OSS DistributionsThe <strong>task_set_emulation_vector</strong> function establishes
42*5e3eaea3SApple OSS Distributionsa handler within the task
43*5e3eaea3SApple OSS Distributionsfor a set of system calls.  When a thread executes a system call
44*5e3eaea3SApple OSS Distributionswith one of these
45*5e3eaea3SApple OSS Distributionsnumbers, the system call will be redirected to the corresponding
46*5e3eaea3SApple OSS Distributionsroutine within
47*5e3eaea3SApple OSS Distributionsthe task's address space.
48*5e3eaea3SApple OSS Distributions<p>
49*5e3eaea3SApple OSS DistributionsThese emulation handler addresses are inherited by child processes.
50*5e3eaea3SApple OSS Distributions<h3>NOTES</h3>
51*5e3eaea3SApple OSS Distributions<p>
52*5e3eaea3SApple OSS DistributionsThis interface is machine word length specific because of the
53*5e3eaea3SApple OSS Distributionsvirtual addresses
54*5e3eaea3SApple OSS Distributionsin the <var>emulation_vector</var> parameter.
55*5e3eaea3SApple OSS Distributions<h3>RETURN VALUES</h3>
56*5e3eaea3SApple OSS Distributions<p>
57*5e3eaea3SApple OSS DistributionsOnly generic errors apply.
