+.Sh NAME
+.Nm pmap_quick_enter_page ,
+.Nm pmap_quick_remove_page
+.Nd manage fast, single-page kernel address space mappings
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.In sys/param.h
+.In vm/vm.h
+.In vm/pmap.h
+.Ft vm_offset_t
+.Fn pmap_quick_enter_page "vm_page_t m"
+.Ft void
+.Fn pmap_quick_remove_page "vm_offset_t kva"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Fn pmap_quick_enter_page
+function accepts a single page
+.Fa m ,
+and enters this page into a preallocated address in kernel virtual
+address (KVA) space.
+This function is intended for temporary mappings that will only
+be used for a very short period, for example a copy operation on
+the page contents.
+.Pp
+The
+.Fn pmap_quick_remove_page
+function removes a mapping previously created by
+.Fn pmap_quick_enter_page
+at
+.Fa kva ,
+making the KVA frame used by
+.Fn pmap_quick_enter_page
+available for reuse.
+.Pp
+On many architectures,
+.Fn pmap_quick_enter_page
+uses a per-CPU pageframe.
+In those cases, it must disable preemption on the local CPU.
+The corresponding call to
+.Fn pmap_quick_remove_page
+then re-enables preemption.
+It is therefore not safe for machine-independent code to sleep
+or perform locking operations while holding these mappings.
+Current implementations only guarantee the availability of a single
+page for the calling thread, so calls to
+.Fn pmap_quick_enter_page
+must not be nested.
+.Pp
+.Fn pmap_quick_enter_page
+and
+.Fn pmap_quick_remove_page
+do not sleep, and
+.Fn pmap_quick_enter_page
+always returns a valid address.
+It is safe to use these functions under all types of locks except spin mutexes.
+It is also safe to use them in all thread contexts except primary interrupt
+context.
+.Pp
+The page
+.Em must
+not be swapped or otherwise reused while the mapping is active.
+It must be either wired or held, or it must belong to an unmanaged
+region such as I/O device memory.
+.Sh RETURN VALUES
+The
+.Fn pmap_quick_enter_page
+function returns the kernel virtual address
+that is mapped to the page
+.Fa m .
