mmap on a block device

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello All,

Is it possible to mmap on a block device? I am writing my own kernel space filesystem on Linux (academic project). I am writing a user space tool to format the block device (again my own ramdisk driver). It would be much simpler if I could just mmap the block device into my address space.
