+@chapter Process Dump Control Manager
+
+@section Introduction
+
+The process dump control manager provides a portable
+interface for changing the path to which a process dump
+is written.  The capabilities in this manager were defined in
+the POSIX 1003.1h/D3 proposed standard titled @b{Services for Reliable,
+Available, and Serviceable Systems}.
+
+The directives provided by the process dump control manager are:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item @code{dump_setpath} - Dump File Control 
+@end itemize

+
+@section Directives
+
+This section details the process dump control manager's directives.
+A subsection is dedicated to each of this manager's directives
+and describes the calling sequence, related constants, usage,
+and status codes.
+
+@page
+@subsection dump_setpath - Dump File Control
+
+@subheading CALLING SEQUENCE:
+
+@ifset is-C
+@example
+#include <dump.h>
+
+int dump_setpath(
+  const char      *path
+);
+@end example
+@end ifset
+
+@ifset is-Ada
+@end ifset
+
+@subheading STATUS CODES:
+
+@table @b
+@item EACESS
+Search permission is denied for a component of the path prefix,
+or write permission is denied on the directory containing the 
+file.
+
+@item ENAMETOOLONG
+The length of the argument exceeds @code{PATH_MAX} or a pathname
+component is longer than @code{NAME_MAX} while @code{_POSIX_NO_TRUNC}
+is in effect.
+
+@item ENOENT
+The path argument points to an empty string.
+
+@item ENOTDIR
+A component of the path prefix is not a directory.
+
+@item EROFS
+The directory entry specified resides on a read-only file system.
+
+@end table
+
+@subheading DESCRIPTION:
+
+The @code{dump_setpath()} function defines the pathname where process
+dumps are written.  The pathname pointed to by @code{path} defines 
+where a process dump file is written if the calling process 
+terminates with a dump file.  The @code{path} argument does not 
+name a directory.
+
+If the @code{path} argument is NULL, the system does not write a
+process dump file if the calling process terminates with a dump 
+file.  If the @code{dump_setpath} function fails, the pathname for
+writing process dumps does not change.
+
+@subheading NOTES:
+
+The @code{_POSIX_DUMP} feature flag is defined to indicate
+this service is available.
