# memcpy\_pa

### Function

> memcpy\_pa

### Syntax

> memcpy\_pa( PhysicalDestination, PhysicalSource, Num );

### Parameters

**\[PhysicalDestination]**

A [MASM-like expression](https://docs.hyperdbg.org/commands/scripting-language/assumptions-and-evaluations) to evaluate which is the physical address of the **destination** (physical) buffer.

**\[PhysicalSource]**

A [MASM-like expression](https://docs.hyperdbg.org/commands/scripting-language/assumptions-and-evaluations) to evaluate which is the physical address of the **source** buffer.

**\[Num]**

A [MASM-like expression](https://docs.hyperdbg.org/commands/scripting-language/assumptions-and-evaluations) to evaluate which is the size (length) of the bytes to be copied.

### Description

Copies the contents of the source physical address to the destination (physical) buffer.

### Return value

None

### Examples

`memcpy_pa(6de00000 , @rax, 40);`

Copies **0x40** bytes from the physical buffer pointed by the **RAX** register to the buffer which its physical address is `6de00000`.

### Remarks

Please note that the size argument is passed in the **HEX** format.

Make sure to acquire a spinlock if the destination buffer might be accessed by different cores simultaneously.

This function checks for the validity of both the source and the destination address before performing the copy. 

The support for this function is added from **v0.13**.
