This patch imports the unmodified current version of NetBSD libc. The NetBSD includes are in /nbsd_include, while the libc code itself is split between lib/nbsd_libc and common/lib/libc.

.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In sys/mman.h
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn minherit "void *addr" "size_t len" "int inherit"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn minherit
|
|
system call
|
|
changes the specified range of virtual addresses to have the specified
|
|
fork-time inheritance characteristic
|
|
.Fa inherit ,
|
|
which can be set to
|
|
.Dv MAP_INHERIT_NONE ,
|
|
.Dv MAP_INHERIT_COPY ,
|
|
or
|
|
.Dv MAP_INHERIT_SHARE .
|
|
Also possible is
|
|
.Dv MAP_INHERIT_DEFAULT ,
|
|
which defaults to
|
|
.Dv MAP_INHERIT_COPY .
|
|
Not all implementations will guarantee that the inheritance characteristic
|
|
can be set on a page basis;
|
|
the granularity of changes may be as large as an entire region.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Normally, the entire address space is marked
|
|
.Dv MAP_INHERIT_COPY ;
|
|
when the process calls
|
|
.Fn fork ,
|
|
the child receives a (virtual) copy of the entire address space.
|
|
Pages or regions marked
|
|
.Dv MAP_INHERIT_SHARE
|
|
are shared between the address spaces, while pages or regions marked
|
|
.Dv MAP_INHERIT_NONE
|
|
will be unmapped in the child.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
.Rv -std minherit
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
.Fn minherit
|
|
will fail if:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er
|
|
.It Bq Er EINVAL
|
|
An invalid region or invalid parameters were specified.

.Sh HISTORY
|
|
The

.Fn minherit
|
|
function first appeared in

|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
If a particular port does not support page-granularity
|
|
inheritance, there's no way to figure out how large a region is
|
|
actually affected by
|
|
.Fn minherit .
