+ <para>
+ This section documents the interface function for evicting buffer
+ objects to make space available in the virtual gpu address spaces.
+ Note that this is mostly orthogonal to shrinking buffer objects
+ caches, which has the goal to make main memory (shared with the gpu
+ through the unified memory architecture) available.
