Respectfully, I think you have misread the original message.  He is a 
relative beginner, just trying to do a simple file mapping. Based on his 
description, mmap should be able to do what he needs.

I'm willing to be proven wrong, but I'm afraid you may be sending him on 
an unnecessary wild goose chase.
