NAME

       pmem2_vm_reservation_extend(),   pmem2_vm_reservation_shrink()   -   extends  and  shrinks
       existing virtual memory reservation

SYNOPSIS

              #include <libpmem2.h>

              struct pmem2_vm_reservation;
              int pmem2_vm_reservation_extend(struct pmem2_vm_reservation *rsv, size_t size);
              int pmem2_vm_reservation_shrink(struct pmem2_vm_reservation *rsv, size_t offset,
                      size_t size);

DESCRIPTION

       The pmem2_vm_reservation_extend() function extends an existing virtual memory  reservation
       by  the  given  size.   For  the  function  to  succeed  the  size has to be aligned to an
       appropriate allocation granularity.

       If the pmem2_vm_reservation_extend() succeeds in  extending  a  reservation,  it  provides
       placeholder  virtual  memory  range  that  starts  from  an  address at the end of the old
       reservation.  Mappings made to the reservation before extending are preserved.

       The pmem2_vm_reservation_shrink() function shrinks the reservation by a  region  specified
       by  offset  into  the  reservation and the size.  For the function to succeed the size and
       offset variables have to be aligned to an appropriate allocation granularity.  The  region
       formed by offset and size has to belong to the reservation, be empty and it needs to cover
       the beginning or the end of the reservation.  Shrinking reservation  from  the  middle  or
       shrinking the whole reservation is not supported.

       If  the  pmem2_vm_reservation_shrink()  succeeds  in  shrinking a reservation, it releases
       placeholder virtual memory range  that  was  designated  by  offset  and  size  variables.
       Mappings made to the reservation before shrinking are preserved.

       If  either  of  those  functions fails, reservation will be left as it was and appropriate
       error value will be returned.

RETURN VALUE

       The pmem2_vm_reservation_extend() and pmem2_vm_reservation_shrink() functions return 0  on
       success or a negative error code on failure.

ERRORS

       The pmem2_vm_reservation_extend() function can fail with the following errors:

       • PMEM2_E_MAPPING_EXISTS  - the range that the reservation would be extended by is already
         occupied by an existing mapping.

       It can also return -EAGAIN, -ENOMEM from the underlying mmap(2) function.

       The pmem2_vm_reservation_shrink() function can fail with the following errors:

       • PMEM2_E_OFFSET_UNALIGNED - provided offset isn’t aligned to  an  appropriate  allocation
         granularity.

       • PMEM2_E_LENGTH_UNALIGNED  -  provided  size  isn’t  aligned to an appropriate allocation
         granularity.

       • PMEM2_E_OFFSET_OUT_OF_RANGE - provided offset is out of reservation range  available  to
         be shrunk.

       • PMEM2_E_LENGTH_OUT_OF_RANGE  - provided size is out of reservation range available to be
         shrunk.

       • PMEM2_E_NOSUPP - interval designated by offset and size variables covers only the middle
         or the whole reservation range.

       • PMEM2_VM_RESERVATION_NOT_EMPTY  - interval designated by offset and size variable is not
         empty.

       It can also return -EAGAIN and -ENOMEM from the underlying munmap(2) function.
