Function Type: Flushing Execution
This function stores the current value of a device property in a user-provided buffer. No more than len bytes of the specified type will be written.
0 if a query was successful and the value(s) of the property are stored in param, or -1 if an error occurred (errno is set; refer to /usr/include/errno.h for more details). Note that the error may also have been caused by any delayed execution function that's just been flushed.
