Given a file descriptor returned from an or call, will allocate another file descriptor synonymous with the original. The new file descriptor is returned in r0. is used more to reassign the value of file descriptors than to genuinely duplicate a file descriptor.

This is handy for manipulating standard input and/or standard output. creat (II), open (II), close (II), pipe (II) The error bit (c-bit) is set if: the given file descriptor is invalid; there are already too many open files. From C, a 1 returned value indicates an error.
