The argument of type +vm_prot_t is used to give a mapping certain access +rules. These rules are described below: + +The +.Ft PMAP_WRITABLE +bit tells pmap_map() to allow writes to the page. +Writes to pages without this bit will result in an exception, +on AMD64 a #PF will occur. + +The +.Ft PMAP_EXEC +bit tells pmap_map() to allow this page to be +executable. On platforms like AMD64, execution of pages +without this bit will result in an exception from the +instruction fetch, for AMD64, a #PF will occur. + +.Sh AUTHORS +.An Ian Moffett Aq Mt ian@osmora.org + +.Sh SEE ALSO +.Xr vm 9 -- cgit v1.2.3
