<sys/mman.h>(P) POSIX Programmer's Manual <sys/mman.h>(P) NAME
sys/mman.h - memory management declarations SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/mman.h> DESCRIPTION
The <sys/mman.h> header shall be supported if the implementation supports at least one of the following options: * The Memory Mapped Files option * The Shared Memory Objects option * The Process Memory Locking option * The Memory Protection option * The Typed Memory Objects option * The Synchronized Input and Output option * The Advisory Information option * The Typed Memory Objects option If one or more of the Advisory Information, Memory Mapped Files, or Shared Memory Objects options are supported, the following protection options shall be defined: PROT_READ Page can be read. PROT_WRITE Page can be written. PROT_EXEC Page can be executed. PROT_NONE Page cannot be accessed. The following flag options shall be defined: MAP_SHARED Share changes. MAP_PRIVATE Changes are private. MAP_FIXED Interpret addr exactly. The following flags shall be defined for msync(): MS_ASYNC Perform asynchronous writes. MS_SYNC Perform synchronous writes. MS_INVALIDATE Invalidate mappings. The following symbolic constants shall be defined for the mlockall() function: MCL_CURRENT Lock currently mapped pages. MCL_FUTURE Lock pages that become mapped. The symbolic constant MAP_FAILED shall be defined to indicate a failure from the mmap() function. If the Advisory Information and either the Memory Mapped Files or Shared Memory Objects options are supported, values for advice used by posix_madvise() shall be defined as follows: 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_SEQUENTIAL The application expects to access the specified range sequentially from lower addresses to higher addresses. POSIX_MADV_RANDOM The application expects to access the specified range in a random order. POSIX_MADV_WILLNEED The application expects to access the specified range in the near future. POSIX_MADV_DONTNEED The application expects that it will not access the specified range in the near future. The following flags shall be defined for posix_typed_mem_open(): 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 mode_t, off_t, and size_t types shall be defined as described in <sys/types.h> . The <sys/mman.h> header shall define the structure posix_typed_mem_info, which includes 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.
