Actually, it is mmap but we name it as mmap2. User may confused > if they do not know the implementations. That is a good point: If the implementation matches the mmap() behavior rather than mmap2(), we should rename the macro by doing #undef __NR_mmap2 #define __NR_mmap 222 in the uapi/asm/unistd.h file for ilp32 mode. Alternatively we can keep the __NR_mmap2 definition but then we need to pass the pgoff (value shifted by 12 bits) argument rather than the size in bytes.
