vm_paddr_t

The () function maps a virtual address to a physical page. In certain situations, callers may use pmap_extract_and_hold() instead, to ensure that the returned page is held.

The () function maps a virtual address to a physical page, and atomically holds the returned page for use by the caller, only if the mapping permits the given page protection.

Currently, the page protection requested by the caller is not verified.

The pmap_extract() function will return the physical page address associated with the virtual address va inside the physical map pmap. If the mapping does not exist, or if the pmap parameter is NULL, then NULL will be returned.

The pmap_extract_and_hold() function will return the physical page address associated with the virtual address va inside the physical map pmap. If the mapping does not exist, the result is a no-op, and NULL will be returned.
