NAME

     pmap_page_exists_quick — determine if a page exists in a physical map

SYNOPSIS

     #include <sys/param.h>
     #include <vm/vm.h>
     #include <vm/pmap.h>

     boolean_t
     pmap_page_exists_quick(pmap_t pmap, vm_page_t m);

DESCRIPTION

     The pmap_page_exists_quick() function is used to quickly determine if the page m exists in
     the physical map pmap.  It is typically called from the VM paging code.

IMPLEMENTATION NOTES

     The PV count used above may be changed upwards or downwards in future; it is only necessary
     that TRUE be returned for a small subset of pmaps for proper page aging.

RETURN VALUES

     The pmap_page_exists_quick() returns TRUE only if the PV entry for the physical map pmap is
     one of the first 16 PVs linked from the page m.
