NAMEsys/mman.h — memory management declarations

SYNOPSIS#include <sys/mman.h>

DESCRIPTIONThe <sys/mman.h> header shall define the following symbolic constants for use as protection options: PROT_EXEC Page can be executed. PROT_NONE Page cannot be accessed. PROT_READ Page can be read. PROT_WRITE Page can be written. The <sys/mman.h> header shall define the following symbolic constants for use as flag options: MAP_FIXED Interpret addr exactly. MAP_PRIVATE Changes are private. MAP_SHARED Share changes. The <sys/mman.h> header shall define the following symbolic constants for the msync() function: MS_ASYNC Perform asynchronous writes. MS_INVALIDATE Invalidate mappings. MS_SYNC Perform synchronous writes. The <sys/mman.h> header shall define the following symbolic constants for the mlockall() function: MCL_CURRENT Lock currently mapped pages. MCL_FUTURE Lock pages that become mapped. The <sys/mman.h> header shall define the symbolic constant MAP_FAILED which shall have type void * and shall be used to indicate a failure from the mmap() function . If the Advisory Information option is supported, the <sys/mman.h> header shall define symbolic constants for the advice argument to the posix_madvise() function as follows: POSIX_MADV_DONTNEED 
The application expects that it will not access the specified range in the near future.
POSIX_MADV_NORMAL 
The application has no advice to give on its behavior with respect to the specified range. It is the default characteristic if no advice is given for a range of memory.
POSIX_MADV_RANDOM 
The application expects to access the specified range in a random order.
POSIX_MADV_SEQUENTIAL 
The application expects to access the specified range sequentially from lower addresses to higher addresses.
POSIX_MADV_WILLNEED 
The application expects to access the specified range in the near future.
The <sys/mman.h> header shall define the following symbolic constants for use as flags for the posix_typed_mem_open() function: POSIX_TYPED_MEM_ALLOCATE 
Allocate on mmap().
POSIX_TYPED_MEM_ALLOCATE_CONTIG 
Allocate contiguously on mmap().
POSIX_TYPED_MEM_MAP_ALLOCATABLE 
Map on mmap(), without affecting allocatability.
The <sys/mman.h> header shall define the mode_t, off_t, and size_t types as described in <sys_types.h>. The <sys/mman.h> header shall define the posix_typed_mem_info structure, which shall include at least the following member: size_t posix_tmi_length Maximum length which may be allocated from a typed memory object.The following shall be declared as functions and may also be defined as macros. Function prototypes shall be provided. int mlock(const void *, size_t); int mlockall(int); void *mmap(void *, size_t, int, int, int, off_t); int mprotect(void *, size_t, int); int msync(void *, size_t, int); int munlock(const void *, size_t); int munlockall(void); int munmap(void *, size_t); int posix_madvise(void *, size_t, int); int posix_mem_offset(const void *restrict, size_t, off_t *restrict, size_t *restrict, int *restrict); int posix_typed_mem_get_info(int, struct posix_typed_mem_info *); int posix_typed_mem_open(const char *, int, int); int shm_open(const char *, int, mode_t); int shm_unlink(const char *);The following sections are informative.
