 * anonymous memory management
 *
 * anonymous virtual memory is short term virtual memory that goes away
 * when the processes referencing it go away.    an anonymous page of
 * virtual memory is described by the following data structure:
 */

struct vm_anon {
  int an_ref;			/* reference count [an_lock] */
#if NCPU > 1
  simple_lock_data_t an_lock;	/* lock for an_ref */
#endif
  union {
    struct vm_anon *an_nxt;	/* if on free list [afreelock] */
    struct vm_page *an_page;	/* if in RAM [pageqlock] */
  } u;
  int an_swslot;		/* drum swap slot # (if != 0) [pageqlock] */
};

/*
 * a pool of vm_anon data structures is allocated and put on a global
 * free list at boot time.  vm_anon's on the free list use "an_nxt" as
 * a pointer to the next item on the free list.  for active vm_anon's
 * the data can be in one of the following state: [1] in a vm_page
 * with no backing store allocated yet, [2] in a vm_page with backing
 * store allocated, or [3] paged out to backing store (no vm_page).
 *
 * for pageout in case [2]: if the page has been modified then we must
 * flush it out to backing store, otherwise we can just dump the
 * vm_page.
 */

/*
 * anonymous virtual memory pages (vm_anon's) live in anonymous memory
 * maps.   anonymous memory maps can be shared between processes.
 * different subsets of an anonymous memory map can be referenced by
 * processes (see below).    an anonymous map is described by the following
 * data structure:
 */

#define VM_AMAP_PPREF		/* use a per-page reference count for split
				   vm_map_entry_t's. */

struct vm_amap {
#if NCPU > 1
  simple_lock_data_t am_l;	/* simple lock [locks all vm_amap fields] */
#endif
  int am_ref;			/* reference count */
  int am_flags;			/* flags */
  int am_maxslot;		/* max # of slots allocated */
  int am_nslot;			/* # of slots currently in map ( <= maxslot) */
  int am_nused;			/* # of slots currently in use */
  int *am_slots;		/* contig array of active slots */
  int *am_bckptr;		/* back pointer array to am_slots */
  struct vm_anon **am_anon;	/* array of anonymous pages */

#define AMAP_REFALL	0x2	/* flag to amap_ref() */

/*
 * note that am_slots, am_bckptr, and am_anon are arrays.   this allows
 * fast lookup of pages based on their virual address at the expense of
 * some extra memory.    [XXX: for memory starved systems provide alternate
 * functions?]
 *
 * 4 slot/page example, with slots 1 and 3 in use:
 * ("D/C" == don't care what the value is)
 *
 *            0     1      2     3
 * am_anon:   NULL, anon0, NULL, anon1		(actual pointers to anons)
 * am_bckptr: D/C,  1,     D/C,  0		(points to am_slots entry)
 *
 * am_slots:  3, 1, D/C, D/C    		(says slots 3 and 1 are in use)
 *
 * note that am_bckptr is D/C if the slot in am_anon is set to NULL.
 * to find the entry in am_slots for an anon, look at am_bckptr[slot],
 * thus the entry for slot 3 in am_slots[] is at am_slots[am_bckptr[3]].
 * in general, if am_anon[X] is non-NULL, then the following must be
 * true: am_slots[am_bckptr[X]] == X
 *
 * note that am_slots is always contig-packed.
