10 <strong>(mach_port_t</strong> <var>backing_store</var><strong>);</strong>

12 <h3>PARAMETERS</h3>
13 <dl>
14 <p>

20 <h3>DESCRIPTION</h3>
21 <p>
22 The <strong>default_pager_backing_store_delete</strong> function is called to destroy a
23 backing storage object created by
24 <strong>default_pager_backing_store_create</strong>. The kernel does not make this call
25 itself (which is why it can be a synchronous call); this request is
26 only issued by tasks holding the backing store port, created with
27 <strong>default_pager_backing_store_create</strong>, for a default memory manager.
28 <h3>RETURN VALUES</h3>
29 <dl>
30 <p>
31 <dt> <strong>KERN_FAILURE</strong>
32 <dd>
33 The default pager does not support this operation.
34 <p>
35 <dt> <strong>KERN_INVALID_ARGUMENT</strong>
36 <dd>
37 The backing_store port does not represent a valid backing store or the
38 specified segment overlaps an existing partition.
39 <p>
40 <dt> <strong>KERN_SUCCESS</strong>
41 <dd>
42 The operation was successful.
