45 function maps a range of physical addresses into kernel virtual address (KVA)
55 is treated as a hint for the virtual address of the beginning of the mapping.
56 .Sh IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
59 argument is currently ignored by machine-dependent implementations.
61 Architectures which can support a direct mapped physical to virtual
62 region can return the appropriate address within that region, leaving
68 function returns the virtual address of the beginning of the mapping, if
69 the mapping was successfully made;
71 will also be updated with the first usable address after the mapped region.
