    51     51   the convenience function `kmstat(void*) → kmptr` wraps a pointer to a static object in a `kmptr` struct.

    53     53   ### kmcell
    54     54   
    55     55   `kmcell` is a stub struct used to disambiguate between source types.a "source" is an object that can hold an allocated object, such as the heap, a memory pool, a fixed-length array on stack, or a fixed-length global array. all values produced by a kmem allocation function point to within a `kmcell`.

    57         - * `kmptr_kind kind` - kind of cell
    58         - * `size_t sz` - kind of cell (data plus all fields)
           57  + * `kmkind kind` - kind of cell
           58  + * `size_t size` - size of cell (data plus all fields)
    59     59    * `kmshred shred` - shredding flag

    61     61   ### kmref
    62     62   
    63     63   `kmref` is a struct that constitutes the in-memory representation of a reference-counted cell.
    64     64   
    65     65    * `kmkind kind = kmkind_ref` - kind of cell
