106 * kmalloc - allocate memory
107 * @size: how many bytes of memory are required.
108 * @flags: the type of memory to allocate.
109 *
110 * kmalloc is the normal method of allocating memory
111 * in the kernel.
112 *
113 * The @flags argument may be one of:
114 *
115 * %GFP_USER - Allocate memory on behalf of user. May sleep.
116 *
117 * %GFP_KERNEL - Allocate normal kernel ram. May sleep.
118 *
119 * %GFP_ATOMIC - Allocation will not sleep.
120 * For example, use this inside interrupt handlers.
121 *
122 * %GFP_HIGHUSER - Allocate pages from high memory.
123 *
124 * %GFP_NOIO - Do not do any I/O at all while trying to get memory.
125 *
126 * %GFP_NOFS - Do not make any fs calls while trying to get memory.
127 *
128 * Also it is possible to set different flags by OR'ing
129 * in one or more of the following additional @flags:
130 *
131 * %__GFP_COLD - Request cache-cold pages instead of
132 * trying to return cache-warm pages.
133 *
134 * %__GFP_DMA - Request memory from the DMA-capable zone.
135 *
136 * %__GFP_HIGH - This allocation has high priority and may use emergency pools.
137 *
138 * %__GFP_HIGHMEM - Allocated memory may be from highmem.
139 *
140 * %__GFP_NOFAIL - Indicate that this allocation is in no way allowed to fail
141 * (think twice before using).
142 *
143 * %__GFP_NORETRY - If memory is not immediately available,
144 * then give up at once.
145 *
146 * %__GFP_NOWARN - If allocation fails, don't issue any warnings.
147 *
148 * %__GFP_REPEAT - If allocation fails initially, try once more before failing.
