NAMEmmap_read - memory map a file for reading SYNTAX#include <libowfat/mmap.h> const char* mmap_read(const char* filename,size_t* filesize); DESCRIPTIONmmap_read opens filename for reading, maps the whole file into memory, closes the file, writes the length of the file to filesize and returns a pointer to the mapped file. The file is unmapped by the operating system if the process terminates. It can also be manually unmapped by calling munmap from <sys/mman.h>. If the file could not be opened or mapped, (void*)0 is returned. SEE ALSOmmap_unmap(3), mmap_private(3), mmap_readat(3), mmap_shared(3)
