|
Arguments
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
``start``
|
|
Map the buffer to this address in the application's address space.
|
|
When the ``MAP_FIXED`` flag is specified, ``start`` must be a
|
|
multiple of the pagesize and mmap will fail when the specified
|
|
address cannot be used. Use of this option is discouraged;
|
|
applications should just specify a ``NULL`` pointer here.
|
|
|
|
``length``
|
|
Length of the memory area to map. This must be a multiple of the
|
|
DVB packet length (188, on most drivers).
|
|
|
|
``prot``
|
|
The ``prot`` argument describes the desired memory protection.
|
|
Regardless of the device type and the direction of data exchange it
|
|
should be set to ``PROT_READ`` | ``PROT_WRITE``, permitting read
|
|
and write access to image buffers. Drivers should support at least
|
|
this combination of flags.
|
|
|
|
``flags``
|
|
The ``flags`` parameter specifies the type of the mapped object,
|
|
mapping options and whether modifications made to the mapped copy of
|
|
the page are private to the process or are to be shared with other
|
|
references.
|
|
|
|
``MAP_FIXED`` requests that the driver selects no other address than
|
|
the one specified. If the specified address cannot be used,
|
|
:ref:`mmap() <dmx-mmap>` will fail. If ``MAP_FIXED`` is specified,
|
|
``start`` must be a multiple of the pagesize. Use of this option is
|
|
discouraged.
|
|
|
|
One of the ``MAP_SHARED`` or ``MAP_PRIVATE`` flags must be set.
|
|
``MAP_SHARED`` allows applications to share the mapped memory with
|
|
other (e. g. child-) processes.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
The Linux Digital TV applications should not set the
|
|
``MAP_PRIVATE``, ``MAP_DENYWRITE``, ``MAP_EXECUTABLE`` or ``MAP_ANON``
|
|
flags.
|
|
|
|
``fd``
|
|
File descriptor returned by :ref:`open() <dmx_fopen>`.
|
|
|
|
``offset``
|
|
Offset of the buffer in device memory, as returned by
|
|
:ref:`DMX_QUERYBUF` ioctl.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Description
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
The :ref:`mmap() <dmx-mmap>` function asks to map ``length`` bytes starting at
|
|
``offset`` in the memory of the device specified by ``fd`` into the
|
|
application address space, preferably at address ``start``. This latter
|
|
address is a hint only, and is usually specified as 0.
|
|
|
|
Suitable length and offset parameters are queried with the
|
|
:ref:`DMX_QUERYBUF` ioctl. Buffers must be allocated with the
|
|
:ref:`DMX_REQBUFS` ioctl before they can be queried.
|
|
|
|
To unmap buffers the :ref:`munmap() <dmx-munmap>` function is used.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Return Value
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
On success :ref:`mmap() <dmx-mmap>` returns a pointer to the mapped buffer. On
|
|
error ``MAP_FAILED`` (-1) is returned, and the ``errno`` variable is set
|
|
appropriately. Possible error codes are:
|
|
|
|
EBADF
|
|
``fd`` is not a valid file descriptor.
|
|
|
|
EACCES
|
|
``fd`` is not open for reading and writing.
|
|
|
|
EINVAL
|
|
The ``start`` or ``length`` or ``offset`` are not suitable. (E. g.
|
|
they are too large, or not aligned on a ``PAGESIZE`` boundary.)
|
|
|
|
The ``flags`` or ``prot`` value is not supported.
|
|
|
|
No buffers have been allocated with the
|
|
:ref:`DMX_REQBUFS` ioctl.
|
|
|
|
ENOMEM
|
|
Not enough physical or virtual memory was available to complete the
|
|
request.
