43 This function is used for obtaining virtual memory mapping information
44 of a particular process.
48 field contains the process identifier.
49 This should be the a process that you have privilege to access.
52 field is allows the caller to know how many records are returned.
54 This function is a wrapper around
59 While the kernel returns a packed structure, this function expands the
60 data into a fixed record format.
64 function returns a pointer to an array of
65 .Vt struct kinfo_vmentry
66 structures as defined by
68 The array was obtained by an internal call to
70 and must be freed by the caller with a call to
