NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     vm_page_unmanage -- make a page unmanaged

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

     #include <sys/param.h>
     #include <vm/vm.h>
     #include <vm/vm_page.h>

     void
     vm_page_unmanage(vm_page_t m);

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     The vm_page_unmanage() function flags that the page should no longer be
     managed by the VM system like other pages.  The page is removed from any
     page queue it may be on, and after its PG_UNMANAGED flag is set, the page
     daemon will ignore it (if the page is currently wired, it will not be
     removed from its current queue).

     Unmanaged pages are used by OBJT_PHYS objects to provide physical memory
     backed storage.
