  mmap
The mmap() function shall establish a mapping between the address space of the process at an address pa for len bytes to the memory object represented by the file descriptor fildes at offset off for len bytes.
If the size of the mapped file changes after the call to mmap() as a result of some other operation on the mapped file, the effect of references to portions of the mapped region that correspond to added or removed portions of the file is unspecified.
The mmap() function shall add an extra reference to the file associated with the file descriptor fildes which is not removed by a subsequent close() on that file descriptor.

 mmap(2)
mmap establishes a mapping between the process's address space at an address pa for len bytes and the file represented by the file descriptor fd at offset off for len bytes.
mmap adds an extra reference to the file associated with the file descriptor fd which is not removed by a subsequent close on that file descriptor.
On success, mmap and mmap64 return the address at which the mapping was placed (pa).

 Cal Poly Central UNIX man pages : mmap ()   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
The format of the call is as follows: pa=mmap(addr, len, prot, flags, fildes, off); The mmap() function establishes a mapping between the process' address space at an address pa for len bytes and the file associated with the file descriptor fildes at offset off for len bytes.
If the size of the mapped file changes after the call to mmap(), the effect of references to portions of the mapped region that correspond to added or removed portions of the file is unspecified.
If the mapping established by mmap() extends into pages beyond the page containing the last byte of the file, an application reference to any of the pages in the mapping that are beyond the last page results in the delivery of a SIGBUS or SIGSEGV signal.

 mmap(2)
The mmap() system call establishes a mapping from the issuing task's ad- dress space to a memory object (typically, an open file) and returns the starting address of the mapping.
Both mmap() and mmap_fsblk(2) may improve performance because they provide a means to avoid making copies of the same data.
With these flags and the PROT_WRITE access permission, mmap() may change the size of the underly- ing file if the data that is being mapped is in the last block of the file; the last block is increased to a size equal to the maximum filesys- tem block size.

 mmap(2): map/unmap files/devices into memory - Linux man page
The mmap() function asks to map length bytes starting at offset offset from the file (or other object) specified by the file descriptor fd into memory, preferably at address start.
Memory mapped by mmap() is preserved across fork(2), with the same attributes.
For file-backed mappings, the st_atime field for the mapped file may be updated at any time between the mmap() and the corresponding unmapping; the first reference to a mapped page will update the field if it has not been already.

 mmap(3): map pages of memory - Linux man page
The mmap() function shall establish a mapping between a process' address space and a file, shared memory object, or typed memory object.
The mmap() function shall be supported for regular files, shared memory objects, and typed memory objects.
On the other hand, if the program specifies a fixed address mapping (which requires some implementation knowledge to determine a suitable address, if the function is supported at all), then the program is presumed to be successfully managing its own address space and should be trusted when it asks to map over existing data structures.

The mmap() system call can be made multiple times on the same sg_fd.
In the case of a fork(), 2 processes will be sharing the same memory mapped area together with the sg driver for a sg_fd and the last one to close the sg_fd (or exit) will cause the shared memory to be freed.
The sg driver does record that the mmap() system call has been invoked at least once on a file descriptor.

 manquery - -s 2 mmap @ Eastern Illinois University
The format of the call is as follows: pa = mmap(addr, len, prot, flags, fildes, off); The mmap() function establishes a mapping between the address space of the process at an address pa for len bytes to the memory object represented by the file descriptor fildes at offset off for len bytes.
The mmap() function allows [pa, pa + len) to extend beyond the end of the object both at the time of the mmap() and while the mapping persists, such as when the file is created prior to the mmap() call and has no contents, or when the file is truncated.
The mmap() function cannot be used to implicitly extend the length of files.

The mmap() entry point is a required entry point for charac- ter drivers supporting memory-mapped devices.
The mmap() entry point is called as a result of an mmap(2) system call, and also as a result of a page fault.
mmap() is called to translate the offset off in device memory to the corresponding physical page frame number.

If the protection and offset are valid for the device, the driver should return the value returned by hat_getkpfnum.9f for the page at offset off in the device's memory.
If offset off is valid, hat_getkpfnum.9f is called to obtain the page frame number corresponding to this offset in the device's memory.
Another alternative is to call ddi_regs_map_setup.9f and ddi_regs_map_free.9f in mmap.

Mmap ==== Don't assume that `mmap' either works on all files or fails for all files.
The proper way to use `mmap' is to try it on the specific file for which you want to use it--and if `mmap' doesn't work, fall back on doing the job in another way using `read' and `write'.
The reason this precaution is needed is that the GNU kernel (the HURD) provides a user-extensible file system, in which there can be many different kinds of "ordinary files." Many of them support `mmap', but some do not.

 mmap(2) - allocate memory, or map files or devices into memory
Typically this prevents the update daemons from flushing pages dirtied through such maps and thus allows efficient sharing of memory across unassociated processes using a file-backed shared memory map.
Without this option any VM pages you dirty may be flushed to disk every so often (every 30-60 seconds usually) which can create performance problems if you do not need that to occur (such as when you are using shared file-backed mmap regions for IPC purposes).
Mmapping slightly more than 2GB doesn’t work, but it is possible to map a window of size (filesize % 2GB) for file sizes of slightly less than 2G, 4GB, 6GB and 8GB.

 mmap
The mmap function causes the pages starting at addr and continuing for at most len bytes to be mapped from the object described by fd, starting at byte offset offset.
If offset or len is not a multiple of the pagesize, the mapped region may extend past the specified range.
For mmap: EACCES The flag PROT_READ was specified as part of the prot parameter and fd was not open for reading.
