[OCLUG-Tech] map kernel memory to user space without /dev/mem or knowing phys addresses?

quite possibly a silly question since i'm really supposed to know this stuff but what's the canonical way to map a number of memory areas from a single device into a process's user space if one doesn't know the underlying physical addresses? first, i don't want to use /dev/mem since that
