131 * Application no longer needs these pages. If the pages are dirty,

135 * these pages later if no one else has touched them in the meantime,

139 * NB: This interface discards data rather than pushes it out to swap,
140 * as some implementations do. This has performance implications for
141 * applications like large transactional databases which want to discard
142 * pages in anonymous maps after committing to backing store the data
143 * that was kept in them. There is no reason to write this data out to
144 * the swap area if the application is discarding it.
146 * An interface that causes the system to free clean pages and flush
147 * dirty pages is already available as msync(MS_INVALIDATE).

248 * The madvise(2) system call.
250 * Applications can use madvise() to advise the kernel how it should
251 * handle paging I/O in this VM area. The idea is to help the kernel
252 * use appropriate read-ahead and caching techniques. The information
253 * provided is advisory only, and can be safely disregarded by the
254 * kernel without affecting the correct operation of the application.
257 * MADV_NORMAL - the default behavior is to read clusters. This
258 * results in some read-ahead and read-behind.
259 * MADV_RANDOM - the system should read the minimum amount of data
260 * on any access, since it is unlikely that the appli-
261 * cation will need more than what it asks for.
262 * MADV_SEQUENTIAL - pages in the given range will probably be accessed
263 * once, so they can be aggressively read ahead, and
264 * can be freed soon after they are accessed.
265 * MADV_WILLNEED - the application is notifying the system to read
267 * MADV_DONTNEED - the application is finished with the given range,
268 * so the kernel can free resources associated with it.
269 * MADV_REMOVE - the application wants to free up the given range of
270 * pages and associated backing store.
274 * -EINVAL - start + len < 0, start is not page-aligned,
275 * "behavior" is not a valid value, or application
276 * is attempting to release locked or shared pages.
277 * -ENOMEM - addresses in the specified range are not currently
278 * mapped, or are outside the AS of the process.
279 * -EIO - an I/O error occurred while paging in data.
280 * -EBADF - map exists, but area maps something that isn't a file.
281 * -EAGAIN - a kernel resource was temporarily unavailable.
