Old (I mean REALLY old) style:
zone_t zinit(size, max, alloc, memtype, name)
vm_size_t size; /* the size of an element */
vm_size_t max; /* maximum memory to use */
vm_size_t alloc; /* allocation size */
unsigned int memtype; /* flags specifying type of memory */
char *name; /* a name for the zone */
{
}
New (well not really new):
/* Parameters types are includeded in the parameter list rather than
* being outside them like the old style. */
void zcram(zone_t zone, vm_offset_t newmem, vm_size_t size)
{
}
Hope this helps,
Jonathan Hunt
