124 * kmalloc - allocate memory
125 * @size: how many bytes of memory are required.
126 * @flags: the type of memory to allocate.
127 *
128 * kmalloc is the normal method of allocating memory
129 * in the kernel.
130 *
131 * The @flags argument may be one of:
132 *
133 * %GFP_USER - Allocate memory on behalf of user. May sleep.
134 *
135 * %GFP_KERNEL - Allocate normal kernel ram. May sleep.
136 *
137 * %GFP_ATOMIC - Allocation will not sleep.
138 * For example, use this inside interrupt handlers.
139 *
140 * %GFP_HIGHUSER - Allocate pages from high memory.
141 *
142 * %GFP_NOIO - Do not do any I/O at all while trying to get memory.
143 *
144 * %GFP_NOFS - Do not make any fs calls while trying to get memory.
145 *
146 * Also it is possible to set different flags by OR'ing
147 * in one or more of the following additional @flags:
148 *
149 * %__GFP_COLD - Request cache-cold pages instead of
150 * trying to return cache-warm pages.
151 *
152 * %__GFP_DMA - Request memory from the DMA-capable zone.
153 *
154 * %__GFP_HIGH - This allocation has high priority and may use emergency pools.
155 *
156 * %__GFP_HIGHMEM - Allocated memory may be from highmem.
157 *
158 * %__GFP_NOFAIL - Indicate that this allocation is in no way allowed to fail
159 * (think twice before using).
160 *
161 * %__GFP_NORETRY - If memory is not immediately available,
162 * then give up at once.
163 *
164 * %__GFP_NOWARN - If allocation fails, don't issue any warnings.
165 *
166 * %__GFP_REPEAT - If allocation fails initially, try once more before failing.
