- zero-fill a page using machine-dependent optimizations
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/param.h>
#include <vm/vm.h>
#include <vm/pmap.h> void
pmap_zero_page (vm_page_t m); void
pmap_zero_page_area (vm_page_t m int off int size); void
pmap_zero_page_idle (vm_page_t m);
DESCRIPTION
The
pmap_zero_page ();
function zero-fills an entire page using machine-dependent optimizations.
The
pmap_zero_page_area ();
function is used to zero-fill an area of a page.
The range specified must not cross a page boundary; it must be contained
entirely within a single page.
The
pmap_zero_page_idle ();
interface is used by the
vm_pagezero
process.
The system-wide
Giant
lock should not be required to be held in order to call this interface.
IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
This function is required to be implemented for each architecture supported by
Fx .
