|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In sys/param.h
|
|
.In vm/vm.h
|
|
.In vm/pmap.h
|
|
.Ft vm_offset_t
|
|
.Fn pmap_quick_enter_page "vm_page_t m"
|
|
.Ft void
|
|
.Fn pmap_quick_remove_page "vm_offset_t kva"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn pmap_quick_enter_page
|
|
function accepts a single page
|
|
.Fa m ,
|
|
and enters this page into a preallocated address in kernel virtual
|
|
address (KVA) space.
|
|
This function is intended for temporary mappings that will only
|
|
be used for a very short period, for example a copy operation on
|
|
the page contents.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn pmap_quick_remove_page
|
|
function removes a mapping previously created by
|
|
.Fn pmap_quick_enter_page
|
|
at
|
|
.Fa kva ,
|
|
making the KVA frame used by
|
|
.Fn pmap_quick_enter_page
|
|
available for reuse.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
On many architectures,
|
|
.Fn pmap_quick_enter_page
|
|
uses a per-CPU pageframe.
|
|
In those cases, it must disable preemption on the local CPU.
|
|
The corresponding call to
|
|
.Fn pmap_quick_remove_page
|
|
then re-enables preemption.
|
|
It is therefore not safe for machine-independent code to sleep
|
|
or perform locking operations while holding these mappings.
|
|
Current implementations only guarantee the availability of a single
|
|
page for the calling thread, so calls to
|
|
.Fn pmap_quick_enter_page
|
|
must not be nested.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn pmap_quick_enter_page
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn pmap_quick_remove_page
|
|
do not sleep, and
|
|
.Fn pmap_quick_enter_page
|
|
always returns a valid address.
|
|
It is safe to use these functions under all types of locks except spin mutexes.
|
|
It is also safe to use them in all thread contexts except primary interrupt
|
|
context.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The page
|
|
.Em must
|
|
not be swapped or otherwise reused while the mapping is active.
|
|
It must be either wired or held, or it must belong to an unmanaged
|
|
region such as I/O device memory.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn pmap_quick_enter_page
|
|
function returns the kernel virtual address
|
|
that is mapped to the page
|
|
.Fa m .
