KM_NOSLEEP
Return NULL immediately if memory is not
! available, but after an aggressive
! reclaiming attempt. Any mention of
! KM_NOSLEEP without mentioning
! KM_NOSLEEP_LAZY (see below) applies to
! both values.
+ KM_NOSLEEP_LAZY
+ Return NULL immediately if memory is not
+ available, without the aggressive
+ reclaiming attempt. This is actually two
+ flags combined: (KM_NOSLEEP |
+ KM_NORMALPRI), the latter flag indicating
+ not to attempt reclamation before giving
+ up and returning NULL.
+

KM_PUSHPAGE
Allow the allocation to use reserved
memory.

RETURN VALUES
! If successful, the constructor function must return 0. If KM_NOSLEEP is
! set and memory cannot be allocated without sleeping, the constructor
! must return -1.
kmem_cache_create() returns a pointer to the allocated cache.

object_cache = kmem_cache_create(...);
kmem_cache_set_move(object_cache, object_move);
RETURN VALUES
! If successful, the constructor function must return 0. If KM_NOSLEEP or
! KM_NOSLEEP_LAZY is set and memory cannot be allocated without sleeping,
! the constructor must return -1. If the constructor takes extraordinary
! steps during a KM_NOSLEEP construction, it may not take those for a
! KM_NOSLEEP_LAZY construction.
kmem_cache_create() returns a pointer to the allocated cache.
