 pgsigio(9) -- kernel signal functions
    The SIGADDSET() macro adds signo to set. No effort is made to ensure that signo is a valid signal number. The SIGDELSET() macro removes signo from set. No effort is made to ensure that signo is a vali...
 pgsignal(9) -- post signal to a process or process group
    These functions post a signal to one or more processes. The argument signum common to all three functions should be in the range [1-NSIG]. The psignal() function posts signal number signum to the proc...
 physio(9) -- initiate I/O on raw devices
    The physio() is a helper function typically called from character device read() and write() routines to start I/O on a user process buffer. The maximum amount of data to transfer with each call is det...
 pmap(9) -- machine-dependent portion of virtual memory subsystem
    The pmap module is the machine-dependent portion of the FreeBSD VM (Virtual Memory) sub-system. Each function documented herein must have its own architecture-dependent implementation. The pmap module...
 pmap_activate(9) -- activate a physical map
    The pmap_activate() function activates the physical map for a user thread td. This function must be called before the thread's address space may be accessed.
 pmap_addr_hint(9) -- get a hint for the best-fit mapping of a VM object
    The pmap_addr_hint() function returns a hint for the best address at which to map the object obj at address addr of size bytes.
 pmap_change_wiring(9) -- change physical wiring for a map or virtual address pair
    The pmap_change_wiring() function changes the wiring attribute for the page at virtual address va in the physical map pmap. A wired page gets its name from being `wired' into the system page tables s...
 pmap_clear_modify(9) -- set information about physical pages
    The pmap_clear_modify() function clears the `modified' bit on the physical page m. The pmap_clear_reference() function clears the `referenced' bit on the physical page m.
 pmap_clear_reference(9) -- set information about physical pages
    The pmap_clear_modify() function clears the `modified' bit on the physical page m. The pmap_clear_reference() function clears the `referenced' bit on the physical page m.
 pmap_copy(9) -- copy physical memory pages
    The pmap_copy() function copies the range specified by src_addr and len from the source physical map src_pmap to the destination physical map dst_pmap at the address dst_addr. The pmap_copy_page() fun...
 pmap_copy_page(9) -- copy physical memory pages
    The pmap_copy() function copies the range specified by src_addr and len from the source physical map src_pmap to the destination physical map dst_pmap at the address dst_addr. The pmap_copy_page() fun...
 pmap_enter(9) -- insert a virtual page into a physical map
    The pmap_enter() function inserts the given physical page p, into the physical map pmap, at the virtual address va, with the protection prot. If wired is TRUE, then increment the wired count for the p...
 pmap_extract(9) -- map a virtual address to a physical page
    The pmap_extract() 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 pmap_extrac...
 pmap_extract_and_hold(9) -- map a virtual address to a physical page
    The pmap_extract() 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 pmap_extrac...
 pmap_growkernel(9) -- grow the kernel virtual address (KVA) space
    The pmap_growkernel() function grows the kernel virtual address space to the virtual address addr. It will allocate more page entries if required.
