kmem_free(D3)							 kmem_free(D3)

NAME
     kmem_free - free previously allocated kernel memory

SYNOPSIS
     #include <sys/types.h>
     #include <sys/kmem.h>
     #include <sys/ddi.h>
     void kmem_free(void *addr, size_t size);

   Arguments
     addr      Address of the allocated memory to be returned.

     size      Number of bytes to free.

DESCRIPTION
     kmem_free returns size bytes of previously allocated kernel memory.

   Return Values
     None

USAGE
     The addr argument must specify an address that was returned by a call to
     kmem_alloc(D3) or kmem_zalloc(D3).

     The size argument must specify the same number of bytes as was allocated
     by the corresponding call to kmem_alloc or kmem_zalloc.

     Together, the addr and size arguments must specify exactly one complete
     area of memory that was allocated by a call to kmem_alloc or kmem_zalloc
     (that is, the memory cannot be freed piecemeal).

   Level
     Initialization, Base or Interrupt.

   Synchronization Constraints
     Does not sleep.

     Driver-defined basic locks, read/write locks, and sleep locks may be held
     across calls to this function.
