|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In sys/mman.h
|
|
.Ft void *
|
|
.Fn mremap "void *oldp" "size_t oldsize" "void *newp" "size_t newsize" \
|
|
"int flags"
|
|
.\" ------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn mremap
|
|
function resizes the mapped range (see
|
|
.Xr mmap 2 )
|
|
starting at
|
|
.Ar oldp
|
|
and having size
|
|
.Ar oldsize
|
|
to
|
|
.Ar newsize .
|
|
The following arguments can be
|
|
.Dv OR Ap ed
|
|
together in the
|
|
.Ar flags
|
|
argument:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width XXMAPXALIGNEDXnXX
|
|
.It Dv MAP_ALIGNED Ns Pq Ar n
|
|
The allocation should be aligned to the given boundary, i.e. ensure
|
|
that the lowest
|
|
.Ar n
|
|
bits of the address are zero.
|
|
The parameter
|
|
.Ar n
|
|
should be the base 2 logarithm of the desired alignment (e.g., to
|
|
request alignment to 16K, use 14 as the value for n).
|
|
The alignment must be equal to or greater than the platform's page
|
|
size as returned by
|
|
.Xr sysconf 3
|
|
with the
|
|
.Dv _SC_PAGESIZE
|
|
request.
|
|
.It Dv MAP_FIXED
|
|
.Ar newp
|
|
is tried and
|
|
.Fn mremap
|
|
fails if that address can't be used as new base address for the range.
|
|
Otherwise,
|
|
.Ar oldp
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar newp
|
|
are used as hints for the position, factoring in the given alignment.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
.Fn mremap
|
|
returns the new address or
|
|
.Dv MAP_FAILED ,
|
|
if the remap failed.
|
|
.Sh COMPATIBILITY
|
|
The semantics of
|
|
.Fn mremap
|
|
differ from the one provided by glibc on Linux in that the
|
|
.Ar newp
|
|
argument was added and a different set of
|
|
.Ar flags
|
|
are implemented.
|

|
|
.Sh HISTORY
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn mremap
|
|
system call appeared in
|
|
.Nx 5.0 .
|
|
It was based on the code that supports
|
|
.Fn mremap
|
|
compatibility for Linux binaries.
