.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn vm_map_check_protection
|
|
function asserts that the target
|
|
.Fa map
|
|
allows the specified privilege
|
|
.Fa protection
|
|
over the entire address range from
|
|
.Fa start
|
|
to
|
|
.Fa end .
|
|
The region MUST be contiguous; no holes are allowed.
|
|
.Sh IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
|
|
This code does not and SHOULD not check whether the contents of
|
|
the region are accessible.
|
|
For example, a small file may be mapped into an address space which
|
|
is significantly larger in size.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn vm_map_check_protection
|
|
function returns TRUE if the privilege is allowed; if it is not allowed,
|
|
or if any other error occurred, the value FALSE is returned.
