+/**
+ * kvm_gmem_populate() - Populate/prepare a GPA range with guest data
+ *
+ * @kvm: KVM instance
+ * @gfn: starting GFN to be populated
+ * @src: userspace-provided buffer containing data to copy into GFN range
+ * (passed to @post_populate, and incremented on each iteration
+ * if not NULL)
+ * @npages: number of pages to copy from userspace-buffer
+ * @post_populate: callback to issue for each gmem page that backs the GPA
+ * range
+ * @opaque: opaque data to pass to @post_populate callback
+ *
+ * This is primarily intended for cases where a gmem-backed GPA range needs
+ * to be initialized with userspace-provided data prior to being mapped into
+ * the guest as a private page. This should be called with the slots->lock
+ * held so that caller-enforced invariants regarding the expected memory
+ * attributes of the GPA range do not race with KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES.
+ *
+ * Returns the number of pages that were populated.
