Memory-Mapping with LFS

2005-08-25 Thread Andreas Baer
Who is the memory mapping expert? :) What are the current file size limits for memory mapping via glibc's mmap() function on linux: - for a native 32-Bit System not using LFS? - for a native 32-Bit System using LFS? - for a native 64-Bit System? (linux-kernel >2.6, of course) It would be nice
