Message-ID: <CALN0BAu_ibgpVykHL-byKm_4X1Afr1R1LRC5ocYVzcqA_k=_9Q@mail.gmail.com> Date: Sun, 18 May 2014 00:03:28 -0400 From: Kenny Simpson <theonetruekenny@...il.com> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Subject: remap_file_pages() use I saw that remap_file_pages() was possibly going away to be replaced by some emulation. I've used this call in several projects over the years mostly as a way of mapping multiple virtual memory pages to alias the same private or shared memory region (to do things like circular buffers). mmap() in the case of anonymous memory doesn't work as well since there is not a file descriptor to reference. Would this sort of thing be supported in the emulation, or should I be planning on reimplementing/rewriting some things? thanks, -Kenny -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
