REMAP_VMALLOC_RANGE(9)              Memory Management in Linux             REMAP_VMALLOC_RANGE(9)



NAME
       remap_vmalloc_range - map vmalloc pages to userspace

SYNOPSIS
       int remap_vmalloc_range(struct vm_area_struct * vma, void * addr, unsigned long pgoff);

ARGUMENTS
       vma
           vma to cover (map full range of vma)

       addr
           vmalloc memory

       pgoff
           number of pages into addr before first page to map

RETURN
       0 for success, -Exxx on failure

       This function checks that addr is a valid vmalloc'ed area, and that it is big enough to
       cover the vma. Will return failure if that criteria isn't met.

       Similar to remap_pfn_range (see mm/memory.c)
