113 * kmalloc - allocate memory

115 * @flags: the type of memory to allocate.
116 *
117 * kmalloc is the normal method of allocating memory
118 * in the kernel.
119 *
120 * The @flags argument may be one of:
121 *
122 * %GFP_USER - Allocate memory on behalf of user. May sleep.
123 *
124 * %GFP_KERNEL - Allocate normal kernel ram. May sleep.
125 *
126 * %GFP_ATOMIC - Allocation will not sleep.
127 * For example, use this inside interrupt handlers.
128 *
129 * %GFP_HIGHUSER - Allocate pages from high memory.
130 *
131 * %GFP_NOIO - Do not do any I/O at all while trying to get memory.
132 *
133 * %GFP_NOFS - Do not make any fs calls while trying to get memory.
134 *
135 * Also it is possible to set different flags by OR'ing
136 * in one or more of the following additional @flags:
137 *
138 * %__GFP_COLD - Request cache-cold pages instead of
139 * trying to return cache-warm pages.
140 *
141 * %__GFP_DMA - Request memory from the DMA-capable zone.
142 *
143 * %__GFP_HIGH - This allocation has high priority and may use emergency pools.
144 *
145 * %__GFP_HIGHMEM - Allocated memory may be from highmem.
146 *
147 * %__GFP_NOFAIL - Indicate that this allocation is in no way allowed to fail
148 * (think twice before using).
149 *
150 * %__GFP_NORETRY - If memory is not immediately available,
151 * then give up at once.
152 *
153 * %__GFP_NOWARN - If allocation fails, don't issue any warnings.
154 *
155 * %__GFP_REPEAT - If allocation fails initially, try once more before failing.
