Unclear usage of NM_OPEN_NO_MMAP #33

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Doing a search through the repo for NM_OPEN_NO_MMAP I can't find where it is 
actually used. In fact the effect it's supposed to have is determined entirely 
by nr_arg2 in the nm_req structure. As long as the parent desc has the same 
nr_arg2 req.nr_arg2, even 0, the mmap address is used.

This should be revised, it's in the public API and it's confusing.
