29.Sh NAME
30.Nm pmap_extract ,
31.Nm pmap_extract_and_hold
32.Nd map a virtual address to a physical page
33.Sh SYNOPSIS
34.In sys/param.h
35.In vm/vm.h
36.In vm/pmap.h
37.Ft vm_paddr_t
38.Fn pmap_extract "pmap_t pmap" "vm_offset_t va"
39.Ft vm_page_t
40.Fn pmap_extract_and_hold "pmap_t pmap" "vm_offset_t va" "vm_prot_t prot"
41.Sh DESCRIPTION
42The
43.Fn pmap_extract
44function maps a virtual address to a physical page.
45In certain situations, callers may use
46.Fn pmap_extract_and_hold
47instead, to ensure that the returned page is held.
48.Pp
49The
50.Fn pmap_extract_and_hold
51function maps a virtual address to a physical page, and atomically holds
52the returned page for use by the caller, only if the mapping permits
53the given page protection.
54.Sh IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
55Currently, the page protection requested by the caller is not verified.
56.Sh RETURN VALUES
57The
58.Fn pmap_extract
59function will return the physical page address associated with the
60virtual address
61.Fa va
62inside the physical map
63.Fa pmap .
64If the mapping does not exist, or if the
65.Fa pmap
66parameter is
67.Dv NULL ,
68then
69.Dv NULL
70will be returned.
71.Pp
72The
73.Fn pmap_extract_and_hold
74function will return the
75.Ft vm_page_t
76associated with the
77virtual address
78.Fa va
79inside the physical map
80.Fa pmap .
81If the mapping does not exist, the result is a no-op, and
82.Dv NULL
83will
84be returned.
