GENERIC_PIPE_BUF_MAP(9) pipes API GENERIC_PIPE_BUF_MAP(9)
NAME
generic_pipe_buf_map - virtually map a pipe buffer
SYNOPSIS
void * generic_pipe_buf_map(struct pipe_inode_info * pipe, struct pipe_buffer * buf, int atomic);
ARGUMENTS
pipe
the pipe that the buffer belongs to
buf
the buffer that should be mapped
atomic
whether to use an atomic map
DESCRIPTION
This function returns a kernel virtual address mapping for the pipe_buffer passed in buf. If atomic is set, an atomic map is provided and
the caller has to be careful not to fault before calling the unmap function.
