+<strong>Function</strong> - Provide kernel with data previously requested by the kernel's Memory Management facility.
+<h3>SYNOPSIS</h3>
+<pre>
+<strong>kern_return_t memory_object_data_supply</strong>
+ <strong>(mem_object_control_port_t</strong> <var>memory_control</var>,
+ <strong>vm_offset_t</strong> <var>offset</var>,
+ <strong>pointer_t</strong> <var>data</var>,
+ <strong>mach_msg_type_number_t</strong> <var>data_count</var>,

+</pre>
+<h3>PARAMETERS</h3>
+<dl>
+<dt> <var>memory_control</var>
+<dd>
+[in memory-cache-control send right]
+The memory cache control port
+to be used by the memory manager for cache management requests.
+This port is provided by the kernel in a <strong>memory_object_init</strong>
+ or <strong>memory_object_create</strong> call.
+<p>
+<p>
+<dt> <var>offset</var>
+<dd>
+[in scalar]
+The offset within the memory object, in bytes.
+<p>
+<p>
+<dt> <var>data</var>
+<dd>
+[pointer to page aligned in array of bytes]
+The address of the data
+being provided to the kernel.
+<p>
+<p>
+<dt> <var>data_count</var>
+<dd>
+[in scalar]
+The amount of data to be provided. The number must be an
+integral number of memory object pages.
+<p>
+<p>
+<dt> <var>deallocate</var>
+<dd>
+[in scalar]
+If <strong>TRUE</strong>, the pages to be copied (starting at data) will be
+deallocated from the memory manager's address space as a result of
+being copied into the message, allowing the pages to be moved into the
+kernel instead of being physically copied.
+<p>
+<p>
+<dt> <var>lock_value</var>
+<dd>
+[in scalar]
+One or more forms of access <var>not</var> permitted for the specified
+data. Valid values are:
+<dl>
+<p>
+<p>
+<dt> <strong>VM_PROT_NONE</strong>
+<dd>
+Prohibits no access (that is, all forms of access are permitted).
+<p>
+<p>
+<dt> <strong>VM_PROT_READ</strong>
+<dd>
+Prohibits read access.
+<p>
+<p>
+<dt> <strong>VM_PROT_WRITE</strong>
+<dd>
+Prohibits write access.
+<p>
+<p>
+<dt> <strong>VM_PROT_EXECUTE</strong>
+<dd>
+Prohibits execute access.
+<p>
+<p>
+<dt> <strong>VM_PROT_ALL</strong>
+<dd>
+Prohibits all forms of access.
+</dl>
+<p>
+<p>
+<dt> <var>precious</var>
+<dd>
+[in scalar]
+If <strong>TRUE</strong>, the pages being supplied are "precious," that is,
+the memory manager is not (necessarily) retaining its own copy. These
+pages must be returned to the manager when evicted from memory,
+even if not modified.
+<p>
+<p>
+<dt> <var>reply_port</var>
+<dd>
+[in reply receive (to be converted to send) right]
+A port to which the
+kernel should send a <strong>memory_object_supply_completed</strong> to indicate
+the status of the accepted data. <strong>MACH_PORT_NULL</strong> is allowed. The
+reply message indicates which pages have been accepted.
+</dl>
+<h3>DESCRIPTION</h3>
+<p>
+The <strong>memory_object_data_supply</strong> function supplies the
+kernel with a range of
+data for the specified memory object. A memory manager can only provide data
+that was requested by a <strong>memory_object_data_request</strong>
+call from the kernel.
+<h3>NOTES</h3>
+<p>
+The kernel accepts only integral numbers of pages. It discards
+any partial pages
+without notification.
+<h3>CAUTIONS</h3>
+<p>
+A memory manager must be careful that it not attempt to provide data that has
+not been explicitly requested. In particular, a memory manager
+must ensure that
+it does not provide writable data again before it receives back modifications
+from the kernel. This may require that the memory manager remember which
+pages it has provided, or that it exercise other cache control functions (via
+<strong>memory_object_lock_request</strong>) before proceeding. The kernel prohibits the
+overwriting of live data pages and will not accept pages it has not requested.
+<h3>RETURN VALUES</h3>
+<p>
+Only generic errors apply.
