VM_PAGE_RENAME(9) BSD Kernel Developer's Manual VM_PAGE_RENAME(9)NAMEvm_page_rename — move a page
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/param.h>
#include <vm/vm.h>
#include <vm/vm_page.h>
void
vm_page_rename(vm_page_t m, vm_object_t new_object,
vm_pindex_t new_pindex);
DESCRIPTION
The vm_page_rename() function removes a page from one object, and adds it
to another at the given page index. The page is added to the given
object, and is removed from the object that is currently associated with.
If the page is currently on the cache queue it will be deactivated unless
it is wired or unmanaged, in which case the deactivation will fail. The
entire page is marked as dirty after the move.
The arguments to vm_page_rename() are:
m The page to move.
new_object The object the page should be inserted into.
new_pindex The page index into new_object at which the new page should
be inserted.
