Function Documentation

int create_ds	(	l4_threadid_t	dm_id,
		l4_size_t	size,
		l4_addr_t *	addr,
		l4dm_dataspace_t *	ds,
		const char *	dbg_name
	)

Create a dataspace.

Parameters:

	dm_id	thread_id of dataspace manager to use
	size	size of dataspace

Return values:

	addr	address of attached dataspace
	ds	dataspace descriptor

Parameters:

dbg_name

name of the dataspace for debugging purposes

Returns:

0 on success -L4_ENOMEM if not enough memory available

int junk_ds	(	l4dm_dataspace_t *	ds,
		l4_addr_t	addr
	)

Junk an attached dataspace.

Parameters:

	ds	dataspace id (ignored if L4DM_INVALID_DATASPACE)
	addr	dataspace map address (ignored if -1)

int phys_ds	(	l4dm_dataspace_t *	ds,
		l4_size_t	size,
		l4_addr_t *	phys_addr
	)

Determine physical address of dataspace.

Parameters:

	ds	dataspace
	size	size of the dataspace (to save one server call)

Return values:

phys_addr

physical addr of dataspace
