Subjectmadvise on file pages
Date
Hi,

Could someone inform as to what is the behavior when madvise DONTNEED is
called on pages that are mmap'd from local files mapped with MAP_SHARED,
i.e. they share the same page that the file cache does. In such cases, can
madvise be made to release specific pages in the file cache by mmap-ing the
relevant file segment ?

thanks,
Muthian.
