The moment I have been avoiding for way too long. Finally we have a very very modest implementation of POSIX mmap, currently we only support MAP_FIXED and only VESA fbdev implements mmap, but it’s a good start.
As a demonstration of it, fbterm now uses mmap instead of I/O functions, which should be a lot faster since it now writes to framebuffer directly instead of going through the kernel and I/O functions.
The VMR covering region 0xB0000000 to 0xB0300000 is mapped to VESA framebuffer (using the normal MM API). Private maps will be a lot easier now, with load on demand and all the good stuff in our memory manager :)
