CVS commit: src/usr.bin/cmp



Module Name:    src
Committed By:   dsl
Date:           Sun Feb  6 21:19:47 UTC 2005

Modified Files:
        src/usr.bin/cmp: regular.c

Log Message:
mmap normal files in 1MB chunks.
Due to a bug in mmap() the address space isn't counted against ulimit
until the page is faulted in - so mmapping a large file suceeds, but
cmp SIGSEGVs when it runs out of address space.
Also I don't believe that the madvise( MAP_SEQUENTIAL) has the desired
effect, and mmaping a large file is probably very bad for the UBC.
