I have seen something similar. I saw this happen on a block device on NetBSD. After some thought, but no verification, I came to the conclusion there may be a bug in the mmap code for block devices. For this case, my first thoughts were that possibly /dev/ram0 may not support mmap. If it does, then there may be a bug in the mmap support. -- Phil Nelson NetBSD: http://www.netbsd.org e-mail: phil@cs.wwu.edu Coda: http://www.coda.cs.cmu.edu http://www.cs.wwu.edu/~philReceived on 2000-03-07 17:00:56
