Virtual Memory Debugger Support Routines

This section describes the virtual-memory routines that pertain primarily to
debuggers. You need to read this section only if you are implementing a debugger.
To determine which debugger functions are present, use the DebuggerGetMax
function. When entering and exiting the debugging state, use the DebuggerEnter
and the DebuggerExit procedures. To determine whether paging is safe, use the PageFaultFatal function. To lock and unlock memory with caching enabled, use
the DebuggerLockMemory and the DebuggerUnlockMemory functions. To poll for keyboard input, use the DebuggerPoll procedure. To determine the state of a page of logical memory, use the GetPageState function.
