110 * kmalloc - allocate memory
111 * @size: how many bytes of memory are required.
112 * @flags: the type of memory to allocate.
113 *
114 * kmalloc is the normal method of allocating memory
115 * in the kernel.
116 *
117 * The @flags argument may be one of:
118 *
119 * %GFP_USER - Allocate memory on behalf of user. May sleep.
120 *
121 * %GFP_KERNEL - Allocate normal kernel ram. May sleep.
122 *
123 * %GFP_ATOMIC - Allocation will not sleep.
124 * For example, use this inside interrupt handlers.
125 *
126 * %GFP_HIGHUSER - Allocate pages from high memory.
127 *
128 * %GFP_NOIO - Do not do any I/O at all while trying to get memory.
129 *
130 * %GFP_NOFS - Do not make any fs calls while trying to get memory.
131 *
132 * Also it is possible to set different flags by OR'ing
133 * in one or more of the following additional @flags:
134 *
135 * %__GFP_COLD - Request cache-cold pages instead of
136 * trying to return cache-warm pages.
137 *
138 * %__GFP_DMA - Request memory from the DMA-capable zone.
139 *
140 * %__GFP_HIGH - This allocation has high priority and may use emergency pools.
141 *
142 * %__GFP_HIGHMEM - Allocated memory may be from highmem.
143 *
144 * %__GFP_NOFAIL - Indicate that this allocation is in no way allowed to fail
145 * (think twice before using).
146 *
147 * %__GFP_NORETRY - If memory is not immediately available,
148 * then give up at once.
149 *
150 * %__GFP_NOWARN - If allocation fails, don't issue any warnings.
151 *
152 * %__GFP_REPEAT - If allocation fails initially, try once more before failing.
