I watched the syscalls with strace and my assumption was confirmed. function Fpmmap( start: pointer; len: size_t; prot: cint; flags: cint; fd:cint; offst: off_t ):pointer;
My offst value for fpmmap is $100000000. strace output: mmap(NULL, 1920000, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED|MAP_32BIT, 3, 0) = -1 EINVAL Here the value is 0. It is likely that the offst value is stripped to 32 bit before passed to the mmap syscall. Am Samstag, 21.
