.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm pmap_map
|
|
.Nd map a physical memory range into kernel virtual address (KVA) space
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In sys/param.h
|
|
.In vm/vm.h
|
|
.In vm/pmap.h
|
|
.Ft vm_offset_t
|
|
.Fn pmap_map "vm_offset_t *virt" "vm_paddr_t start" "vm_paddr_t end" \
|
|
"int prot"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn pmap_map
|
|
function maps a range of physical addresses into kernel virtual address (KVA)
|
|
space, from
|
|
.Fa start
|
|
to
|
|
.Fa end ,
|
|
with protection bits
|
|
.Fa prot .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The value passed in
|
|
.Fa *virt
|
|
is treated as a hint for the virtual address of the beginning of the mapping.
|
|
.Sh IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa prot
|
|
argument is currently ignored by machine-dependent implementations.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Architectures which can support a direct mapped physical to virtual
|
|
region can return the appropriate address within that region, leaving
|
|
.Fa *virt
|
|
unchanged.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn pmap_map
|
|
function returns the virtual address of the beginning of the mapping, if
|
|
the mapping was successfully made;
|
|
.Fa *virt
|
|
will also be updated with the first usable address after the mapped region.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If the function is unsuccessful,
|
|
.Dv NULL
|
|
is returned.
