List_Deallocate

include vmm.inc

mov esi, List ; list handle

mov eax, Node ; address of node to free

VMMcall List_Deallocate


The List_Deallocate service frees the specified node. Once a virtual device frees a node, it must not attempt to use the node.

Parameters

List

Specifies the handle identifying a list. The handle must have been previously created using the List_Create service.

Node

Specifies the address of the node to attach. The node must have been previously created using the List_Allocate service.

Return Value

This service has no return value.

Comments

This service normally never destroys a node. Instead, the service places the node back in the free pool. The node can then quickly be reclaimed when the List_Allocate service is called. If the list is created using the LF_Use_Heap value, this service calls the _HeapFree service for each node.
