+.Sh NAME
+.Nm memcmp
+.Nd compare byte string
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Fd #include <string.h>
+.Ft int
+.Fn memcmp "const void *b1" "const void *b2" "size_t len"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Fn memcmp
+function compares byte string
+.Fa b1
+against byte string
+.Fa b2 .
+Both strings are assumed to be
+.Fa len
+bytes long.
+.Sh RETURN VALUES
+The
+.Fn memcmp
+function returns zero if the two strings are identical,
+otherwise returns the difference between the first two differing bytes
+(treated as
+.Li unsigned char
+values, so that
+.Sq Li \e200
+is greater than
+.Sq Li \&\e0 ,
+for example).
+Zero-length strings are always identical.
+.Sh SEE ALSO
+.Xr bcmp 3 ,
+.Xr strcasecmp 3 ,
+.Xr strcmp 3 ,
+.Xr strcoll 3 ,
+.Xr strxfrm 3
+.Sh STANDARDS
+The
+.Fn memcmp
+function conforms to
+.St -ansiC .
