mmap driver

mmap will establish a mapping between kernel and userspace, We can use it to read data from kernel more quickly.
mmap is a function pointer in driver, so we have to write a driver to realize it, a simple char device driver is enough.
If you don't know how to write a simple char device driver, my code also can help you know it.
I descript the process as below:
1. define a mmap function for struct file_operations, which will register as a driver.
2. When userspace call mmap(system call), file_operations->mmap() will be called.
3. file_operations->mmap should call remap_page_range() to map the memory between userspace and kernel space.
4. userspace call mmap actively, mmap return a void pointer. Now If userspace modify the pointer'
s content, kernel will be modified at the same time.

here is also some link which maybe can help you:
1. has a sample too: http://linux.insigma.com.cn/devbbs/printpage.asp?BoardID=14&ID=100

2. has a userspace sample too: http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/mmap.html

3. "man mmap" will help you more, such as the difference between MAP_SHARED and MAP_PRIVATE.
4. Linux Device Driver(ldd2) has some introduce about mmap. (Section 13)

Note:
1. We should malloc whole page memory in kernel for map.
2. A non-regular file can't be map to write.
3. The size that userspace request to map, will be changed to whole page then sent to kernel.

echo $major
rm -f /dev/${device}[0-3]
mknod /dev/${device}0 c $major 0
ln -sf ${device}0 /dev/${device}
