|
|
The

|
function copies the range specified by
|
|
.Fa src_addr
|
|
and
|
|
.Fa len

at the address
|
|
.Fa dst_addr .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn pmap_copy_page
|
|
function
|
|
copies the physical page
|
|
.Fa src
|
|
to the physical page
|
|
.Fa dst ,
|
|
by mapping the page into kernel virtual address space (KVA), and using
|
|
.Fn bcopy
|
|
to copy the page.
|
|
.Sh IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn pmap_copy
|
|

|
|
Actually implementing it may seriously reduce system performance.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn pmap_copy_page
|
|
routine only operates upon a single page.
