+% PT_ISCACHE_READ(3)
+
+
+
+# NAME
+
+pt_iscache_read - read memory from a cached file section
+
+
+# SYNOPSIS
+
+| **\#include ``**
+|
+| **int pt_iscache_read(struct pt_image_section_cache \**iscache*,**
+| **uint8_t \**buffer*, uint64_t *size*, int *isid*,**
+| **uint64_t *vaddr*);**
+
+Link with *-lipt*.
+
+
+# DESCRIPTION
+
+**pt_iscache_read**() reads memory from a cached file section. The file section
+must have previously been added by a call to **pt_iscache_add**(3). The
+*iscache* argument points to the *pt_image_section_cache* object. It must be
+the same that was used in the corresponding **pt_iscache_add**(3) call. The
+*buffer* argument must point to a memory buffer of at least *size* bytes. The
+*isid* argument identifies the file section from which memory is read. It must
+be the same identifier that was returned from the corresponding
+**pt_iscache_add**(3) call that added the file section to the cache. The *vaddr*
+argument gives the virtual address from which *size* bytes of memory shall be
+read.
+
+On success, **pt_iscache_read**() copies at most *size* bytes of memory from the
+cached file section identified by *isid* in *iscache* starting at virtual
+address *vaddr* into *buffer* and returns the number of bytes that were copied.
+
+Multiple calls to **pt_iscache_read**() may be necessary if *size* is bigger
+than 4Kbyte or if the read crosses a section boundary.
+
+
+# RETURN VALUE
+
+**pt_iscache_read**() returns the number of bytes that were read on success
+or a negative *pt_error_code* enumeration constant in case of an error.
+
+
+# ERRORS
+
+pte_invalid
+: The *iscache* or *buffer* argument is NULL or the *size* argument is zero.
+
+pte_bad_image
+: The *iscache* does not contain a section identified by *isid*.
+
+pte_nomap
+: The *vaddr* argument lies outside of the virtual address range of the cached
+ section.
