.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
.BR "#include <linux/userfaultfd.h>" "  /* Definition of " UFFD* " constants */"

.P
.BI "int ioctl(int " fd ", UFFDIO_WAKE, const struct uffdio_range *" argp );

.SH DESCRIPTION
Wake up the thread waiting for page-fault resolution on
a specified memory address range.
.P
The
.B UFFDIO_WAKE
operation is used in conjunction with
.B UFFDIO_COPY
and
.B UFFDIO_ZEROPAGE
operations that have the
.B UFFDIO_COPY_MODE_DONTWAKE
or
.B UFFDIO_ZEROPAGE_MODE_DONTWAKE
bit set in the
.I mode
field.
The userfault monitor can perform several
.B UFFDIO_COPY
and
.B UFFDIO_ZEROPAGE
operations in a batch and then explicitly wake up the faulting thread using
.BR UFFDIO_WAKE .
.SH RETURN VALUE
This
.BR ioctl (2)
operation returns 0 on success.
On error, \-1 is returned and
.I errno
is set to indicate the error.
.SH ERRORS
.TP
.B EINVAL
The
.I start
or the
.I len
field of the
.I ufdio_range
structure was not a multiple of the system page size; or
.I len
was zero; or the specified range was otherwise invalid.
.SH STANDARDS
