<h3>DESCRIPTION</h3>
<p>
The <strong>default_pager_backing_store_create</strong> function is called to create a
new backing storage object. The kernel does not make this call itself
(which is why it can be a synchronous call); this request is only
issued by tasks (privileged) holding the default pager service port.
<h3>RETURN VALUES</h3>
<dl>
<p>
<dt> <strong>KERN_FAILURE</strong>
<dd>
The default pager does not support this operation.
<p>
<dt> <strong>KERN_INVALID_ARGUMENT</strong>
<dd>
The pager port does not represent a valid default pager.
<p>
<dt> <strong>KERN_SUCCESS</strong>
<dd>
The operation was successful.
</dl>
