31.Sh NAME
32.Nm pmap_extract ,
33.Nm pmap_extract_and_hold
34.Nd map a virtual address to a physical page
35.Sh SYNOPSIS
36.In sys/param.h
37.In vm/vm.h
38.In vm/pmap.h
39.Ft vm_paddr_t
40.Fn pmap_extract "pmap_t pmap" "vm_offset_t va"
41.Ft vm_page_t
42.Fn pmap_extract_and_hold "pmap_t pmap" "vm_offset_t va" "vm_prot_t prot"
43.Sh DESCRIPTION
44The
45.Fn pmap_extract
46function maps a virtual address to a physical page.
47In certain situations, callers may use
48.Fn pmap_extract_and_hold
49instead, to ensure that the returned page is held.
50.Pp
51The
52.Fn pmap_extract_and_hold
53function maps a virtual address to a physical page, and atomically holds
54the returned page for use by the caller, only if the mapping permits
55the given page protection.
56.Sh IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
57Currently, the page protection requested by the caller is not verified.
58.Sh RETURN VALUES
59The
60.Fn pmap_extract
61function will return the physical page address associated with the
62virtual address
63.Fa va
64inside the physical map
65.Fa pmap .
66If the mapping does not exist, or if the
67.Fa pmap
68parameter is
69.Dv NULL ,
70then
71.Dv NULL
72will be returned.
73.Pp
74The
75.Fn pmap_extract_and_hold
76function will return the
77.Ft vm_page_t
78associated with the
79virtual address
80.Fa va
81inside the physical map
82.Fa pmap .
83If the mapping does not exist, the result is a no-op, and
84.Dv NULL
85will
86be returned.
