121 * kmalloc - allocate memory
122 * @size: how many bytes of memory are required.
123 * @flags: the type of memory to allocate.
124 *
125 * kmalloc is the normal method of allocating memory
126 * in the kernel.
127 *
128 * The @flags argument may be one of:
129 *
130 * %GFP_USER - Allocate memory on behalf of user. May sleep.
131 *
132 * %GFP_KERNEL - Allocate normal kernel ram. May sleep.
133 *
134 * %GFP_ATOMIC - Allocation will not sleep.
135 * For example, use this inside interrupt handlers.
136 *
137 * %GFP_HIGHUSER - Allocate pages from high memory.
138 *
139 * %GFP_NOIO - Do not do any I/O at all while trying to get memory.
140 *
141 * %GFP_NOFS - Do not make any fs calls while trying to get memory.
142 *
143 * Also it is possible to set different flags by OR'ing
144 * in one or more of the following additional @flags:
145 *
146 * %__GFP_COLD - Request cache-cold pages instead of
147 * trying to return cache-warm pages.
148 *
149 * %__GFP_DMA - Request memory from the DMA-capable zone.
150 *
151 * %__GFP_HIGH - This allocation has high priority and may use emergency pools.
152 *
153 * %__GFP_HIGHMEM - Allocated memory may be from highmem.
154 *
155 * %__GFP_NOFAIL - Indicate that this allocation is in no way allowed to fail
156 * (think twice before using).
157 *
158 * %__GFP_NORETRY - If memory is not immediately available,
159 * then give up at once.
160 *
161 * %__GFP_NOWARN - If allocation fails, don't issue any warnings.
162 *
163 * %__GFP_REPEAT - If allocation fails initially, try once more before failing.
