288 * of the handles, this will fail. If non-NULL, the @reclaimed

310 * used, i.e. read-only, write-only, read-write. If the
311 * implementation does not support it, the memory will be treated
314 * This may hold locks, disable interrupts, and/or preemption,
315 * and the zpool_unmap_handle() must be called to undo those
316 * actions. The code that uses the mapped handle should complete
317 * its operatons on the mapped handle memory quickly and unmap
318 * as soon as possible. As the implementation may use per-cpu
319 * data, multiple handles should not be mapped concurrently on

335 * This unmaps a previously mapped handle. Any locks or other
336 * actions that the implementation took in zpool_map_handle()
337 * will be undone here. The memory area returned from
338 * zpool_map_handle() should no longer be used after this.
