support for VMFS_ALIGNED_SPACE, which requests the allocation of an address range best suited to superpages. The old options TRUE and FALSE are mapped to VMFS_ANY_SPACE and VMFS_NO_SPACE, so that there is no immediate need to update all of vm_map_find(9)'s callers. While I'm here, correct a misstatement about vm_map_find(9)'s return values in the man page.

.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn vm_map_find
|
|
function attempts to find a free region in the target
|
|
.Fa map ,
|
|
with the given
|
|
.Fa length ,
|
|
and will also optionally create a mapping of
|
|
.Fa object .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The arguments
|
|
.Fa offset ,
|
|
.Fa prot ,
|
|
.Fa max ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Fa cow
|
|
are passed unchanged to
|
|
.Xr vm_map_insert 9
|
|
when creating the mapping, if and only if a free region is found.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa object
|
|
is
|
|
.Pf non- Dv NULL ,
|
|
the reference count on the object must be incremented
|
|
by the caller before calling this function to account for the new entry.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa find_space
|
|
is either
|
|
.Dv VMFS_ALIGNED_SPACE
|
|
or
|
|
.Dv VMFS_ANY_SPACE ,
|
|
the function will call
|
|
.Xr vm_map_findspace 9
|
|
to discover a free region.
|
|
Moreover, if
|
|
.Fa find_space
|
|
is
|
|
.Dv VMFS_ALIGNED_SPACE ,
|
|
the address of the free region will be optimized for the use of superpages.
|
|
Otherwise, if
|
|
.Fa find_space
|
|
is
|
|
.Dv VMFS_NO_SPACE ,
|
|
.Xr vm_map_insert 9
|
|
is called with the given address,
|
|
.Fa addr .
|
|
.Sh IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
|
|
This function acquires a lock on
|
|
.Fa map
|
|
by calling
|
|
.Xr vm_map_lock 9 ,
|
|
and holds it until the function returns.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The search for a free region is defined to be first-fit, from the address
|
|
.Fa addr
|
|
onwards.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn vm_map_find
|
|
function returns
|
|
.Dv KERN_SUCCESS
|
|
if the mapping was successfully created.
|
|
If space could not be found or
|
|
.Fa find_space
|
|
was
|
|
.Dv VMFS_NO_SPACE
|
|
and the given address,
|
|
.Fa addr ,
|
|
was already mapped,
|
|
.Dv KERN_NO_SPACE
|
|
will be returned.
|
|
If the discovered range turned out to be bogus,
|
|
.Dv KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS
|
|
will be returned.
