If .Fa also_m_busy is non-zero, it also waits for .Fa m->busy to become zero. .Sh RETURN VALUES If .Fn vm_page_sleep_if_busy finds the page busy it returns .Dv TRUE . If not, it returns .Dv FALSE . Returning .Dv TRUE does not necessary mean that .Fn vm_page_sleep_if_busy slept, but only that .Fn splvm was called. .Sh AUTHORS This manual page was written by .An Chad David Aq davidc@acns.ab.ca .
