44*1031c584SApple OSS Distributions<h3>DESCRIPTION</h3>
45*1031c584SApple OSS Distributions<p>
46*1031c584SApple OSS DistributionsA <strong>default_pager_object_create</strong> function is called as
47*1031c584SApple OSS Distributionsthe result of a message
48*1031c584SApple OSS Distributionsrequesting that the default memory manager create and return a (shared) memory
49*1031c584SApple OSS Distributionsobject which is suitable for use with <strong>vm_map</strong>.  This memory object has
50*1031c584SApple OSS Distributionsthe same properties as does a memory object provided by
51*1031c584SApple OSS Distributions<strong>vm_allocate</strong>: its initial
52*1031c584SApple OSS Distributionscontents are zero and the backing contents are temporary in that they do not
53*1031c584SApple OSS Distributionspersist after the memory object is destroyed.  The memory object
54*1031c584SApple OSS Distributionsis suitable for use
55*1031c584SApple OSS Distributionsas non-permanent shared memory.  The kernel does not make this call itself
56*1031c584SApple OSS Distributions(which is why it can be a synchronous call); this request is only issued by
57*1031c584SApple OSS Distributions(privileged) tasks holding the default memory manager port.
58*1031c584SApple OSS DistributionsThis call should be
59*1031c584SApple OSS Distributionscontrasted with the kernel's <strong>memory_object_create</strong> message, in which
60*1031c584SApple OSS Distributionsthe memory cache object is already created and the identity of the abstract
61*1031c584SApple OSS Distributionsmemory object is made known to the default manager.
62*1031c584SApple OSS Distributions<h3>RETURN VALUES</h3>
63*1031c584SApple OSS Distributions<p>
64*1031c584SApple OSS DistributionsOnly generic errors apply.
