|
|
.Ft void
|
|
.Fn vm_page_aflag_set "vm_page_t m" "uint8_t bits"

|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn vm_page_aflag_clear
|
|
atomically clears the specified bits on the page's
|
|
.Va aflags .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn vm_page_aflag_set
|
|
atomically sets the specified bits on the page's
|
|
.Va aflags .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn vm_page_reference m
|
|
call is the same as
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
vm_page_aflag_set(m, PGA_REFERENCED);
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Lp
|
|
and is the recommended way to mark the page as referenced from
|
|
third-party kernel modules.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
These functions neither block nor require any locks to be held
|
|
around the calls for correctness.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The functions arguments are:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width ".Fa bits"
|
|
.It Fa m
|
|
The page whose
|
|
.Va aflags
|
|
are updated.
|
|
.It Fa bits
|
|
The bits that are set or cleared on the page's flags.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following
|
|
.Va aflags
|
|
can be set or cleared:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width ".Fa PGA_REFERENCED"
|
|
.It Fa PGA_REFERENCED
|
|
The bit may be set to indicate that the page has been recently accessed.
|
|
For instance,
|
|
.Xr pmap 9
|
|
sets this bit to reflect the accessed attribute of the page mapping
|
|
typically updated by processor's memory management unit on the page access.
|
|
.It Fa PGA_WRITEABLE
|
|
A writeable mapping for the page may exist.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Both
|
|
.Dv PGA_REFERENCED
|
|
and
|
|
.Dv PGA_WRITEABLE
|
|
bits are only valid for the managed pages.
