Looks up the page cache slot at mapping
& offset
.
PCG flags modify how the page is returned.
FGP_ACCESSED: the page will be marked accessed
FGP_LOCK: Page is return locked
FGP_CREAT: If page is not present then a new page is allocated using
gfp_mask
and added to the page cache and the VM's LRU
list. The page is returned locked and with an increased
refcount. Otherwise, NULL
is returned.
If FGP_LOCK or FGP_CREAT are specified then the function may sleep even if the GFP flags specified for FGP_CREAT are atomic.
If there is a page cache page, it is returned with an increased refcount.
