NAME

6       remap_vmalloc_range - map vmalloc pages to userspace
7

SYNOPSIS

9       int remap_vmalloc_range(struct vm_area_struct * vma, void * addr,
10                               unsigned long pgoff);
11

ARGUMENTS

13       vma
14           vma to cover (map full range of vma)
15
16       addr
17           vmalloc memory
18
19       pgoff
20           number of pages into addr before first page to map
21

RETURNS

23       0 for success, -Exxx on failure
24
25       This function checks that addr is a valid vmalloc'ed area, and that it
26       is big enough to cover the vma. Will return failure if that criteria
27       isn't met.

29       Similar to remap_pfn_range (see mm/memory.c)
