  *   Support simulation of memory mapped files by copying files into RAM.
  *
  * Input Parameters:
- *   fd      file descriptor of the backing file -- required.
+ *   filep   file descriptor of the backing file -- required.
  *   length  The length of the mapping.  For exception #1 above, this length
  *           ignored:  The entire underlying media is always accessible.
  *   offset  The offset into the file to map
+ *   kernel  kmm_zalloc or kumm_zalloc
+ *   mapped  The pointer to the mapped area
  *
  * Returned Value:
- *   On success, rammmap() returns a pointer to the mapped area. On error,
- *   the value MAP_FAILED is returned, and errno is set  appropriately.
+ *   On success rammmap returns 0. Otherwise errno is returned appropriately.
