+ *
+ * Parameters:
+ *  @size: the size in bytes of the ram block
+ *  @mr: the memory region where the ram block is
+ *  @ram_flags: specify the properties of the ram block, which can be one
+ *              or bit-or of following values
+ *              - RAM_SHARED: mmap the backing file or device with MAP_SHARED
+ *              - RAM_PMEM: the backend @mem_path or @fd is persistent memory
+ *              Other bits are ignored.
+ *  @mem_path or @fd: specify the backing file or device
+ *  @errp: pointer to Error*, to store an error if it happens
+ *
+ * Return:
+ *  On success, return a pointer to the ram block.
+ *  On failure, return NULL.
