Thought a bit longer about the terminology (as brought up by Peter). Populate might indeed be confusing, because we are not actually populating all memory (e.g., MAP_POPULATE). We enable/activate the mapping to be accessible. Hmmm mmap_enable() ? mmap_activate() ? I think I like the latter. Alternatives? -- Thanks, David / dhildenb
