17 The pmem2_config_new() function instantiates a new (opaque) configura‐
18 tion structure, pmem2_config, which is used to define mapping parame‐
19 ters for a pmem2_map_new() function, and returns it through the pointer
20 in *cfg.
21
22 New configuration is always initialized with default values for most
23 parameters, which are specified alongside the corresponding setter
24 function. The application must explicitly set the granularity value
25 for the mapping.
26
27 The pmem2_config_delete() function frees *cfg returned by pmem2_con‐
28 fig_new() and sets *cfg to NULL. If *cfg is NULL, no operation is per‐
29 formed.
30
32 The pmem2_config_new() function returns 0 on success or a negative er‐
33 ror code on failure. pmem2_config_new() does set *cfg to NULL on fail‐
34 ure.
35
36 The pmem2_config_delete() function always returns 0.
37
39 pmem2_config_new() can fail with the following error: - -ENOMEM - out
40 of memory
