Hello,

I need to implement mmap for non-volatile memory chip (NVRAM). I already did something simple, but now I understand that it is not complete: The nvram need to be unlock and locked after finishing the memory task of read/write.

Does mmap can handle such post/pre actions or not ( I guess that if not - I will need to use read/write alternatives) ?

Not sure if it does or not. But the unlock should be done when the mmap segment is first created, and locked when the last reference to the segment is removed.
