       btop(D3)                                                    btop(D3)


       NAME
             btop - convert size in bytes to size in pages (round down)

       SYNOPSIS
             #include <sys/types.h>
             #include <sys/ddi.h>
             ulong_t btop(ulong_t numbytes);

          Arguments
             numbytes  Size in bytes to convert to equivalent size in
                       pages.

       DESCRIPTION
             btop returns the number of pages that are contained in the
             specified number of bytes, with downward rounding if the byte
             count is not a page multiple.

          Return Values
             The return value is the number of pages.  There are no invalid
             input values, and therefore no error return values.

       USAGE
          Level
             Initialization, Base or Interrupt.

          Synchronization Constraints
             Does not sleep.

             Driver-defined basic locks, read/write locks, and sleep locks
             may be held across calls to this function.

          Examples
             If the page size is 2048, then btop(4096) and btop(4097) both
             return 2, and btop(4095) returns 1.  btop(0) returns 0.
