.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn vm_map_findspace
|
|
function attempts to find a region with sufficient space in the
|
|
.Fa map
|
|
for an object of size
|
|
.Fa length
|
|
at the address
|
|
.Fa addr .
|
|
.Sh IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
|
|
It is the caller's responsibility to obtain a lock on the
|
|
.Fa map
|
|
using
|
|
.Xr vm_map_lock 9
|
|
before calling this function.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
This routine may call
|
|
.Xr pmap_growkernel 9
|
|
to grow the kernel's address space, if and only if the mapping is being
|
|
made within the kernel address space, and if insufficient space remains
|
|
in the
|
|
.Va kernel_map .
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn vm_map_findspace
|
|
function returns the value 0 if successful, and
|
|
.Fa *addr
|
|
will contain the first virtual address in the found region;
|
|
otherwise, the value 1 is returned.
