Virtual Memory Management

This section describes the routines you can use to hold logical pages in physical memory and let go of them, lock and unlock pages in physical memory, obtain information about page mapping, and handle interrupts. To hold and release pages, use the HoldMemory and UnholdMemory functions. To lock and unlock pages, use the LockMemory, LockMemoryContiguous, and UnlockMemory functions. To obtain page-mapping information, use the GetPhysical function. To defer user interrupt handling, use the DeferUserFn function.
