一个进程可以系统调用mmap()，将一个已打开文件的内容映射到它的用户空间，其用户界面为：
mmap(void *start, size_t length, int prot, int flags, int fd, off_t offset)。
参数fd代表着一个已打开文件，offset为文件中的起点，而start为映射到用户空间中的起始地址，length则为长度。还有两个参数prot和flags，前者用于对所映射区间的访问模式，如可写、可执行等；后者则用于其他控制目的。从应用程序设计的角度来说，比之常规的文件操作，如read()、write()、lseek()，将文件映射到用户空间后像访问内存一样地访问文件显然要方便得多。
mmap对应系统调用为sys_mmap2，代码为：
asmlinkage long sys_mmap2(unsigned long addr, unsigned long len,
unsigned long prot, unsigned long flags,
unsigned long fd, unsigned long pgoff)
{
return do_mmap2(addr, len, prot, flags, fd, pgoff);
}static inline long do_mmap2(
unsigned long addr, unsigned long len,
unsigned long prot, unsigned long flags,
unsigned long fd, unsigned long pgoff)
{
int error = -EBADF;
struct file * file = NULL;
flags &= ~(MAP_EXECUTABLE | MAP_DENYWRITE);
if (!(flags & MAP_ANONYMOUS)) {//MAP_ANONYMOUS设成1，表示没有文件，实际上只是用来"圈地"
file = fget(fd);//获取file结构
if (!file)
goto out;
}
down(t->mm->mmap_sem);
error = do_mmap_pgoff(file, addr, len, prot, flags, pgoff);
up(¤t->mm->mmap_sem);
if (file)
fput(file);
out:
return error;
}inline函数do_mmap()，是供内核自己用的，它也是将已打开文件映射到当前进程空间。代码为：
static inline unsigned long do_mmap(struct file *file, unsigned long addr,
unsigned long len, unsigned long prot,
unsigned long flag, unsigned long offset)
{
unsigned long ret = -EINVAL;
if ((offset + PAGE_ALIGN(len)) < offset)
goto out;
if (!(offset & ~PAGE_MASK))
ret = do_mmap_pgoff(file, addr, len, prot, flag, offset >> PAGE_SHIFT);
out:
return ret;
}unsigned long do_mmap_pgoff(struct file * file, unsigned long addr, unsigned long len,
unsigned long prot, unsigned long flags, unsigned long pgoff)
{

.....//各种判断，先忽略

return 0;
}其中file_private_mmap，代码如下：
static struct vm_operations_struct file_private_mmap = {
nopage: filemap_nopage,
};struct address_space_operations ext2_aops = {
readpage: ext2_readpage,
writepage: ext2_writepage,
sync_page: block_sync_page,
prepare_write: ext2_prepare_write,
commit_write: generic_commit_write,
bmap: ext2_bmap
};最后vm_area_struct数据结构，重要的段(vm_ops，file，pgoff，vm_start，vm_end)都设置好了，返回起始虚拟地址。
读者也许感到困惑，在文件与虚拟区间之间建立映射难道就这么简单？而且我们根本就没有看到页面映射的建立！
那么什么时候建立映射呢？
当这个区间的一个页面首次受到访问时，会由于见面无映射而发生缺页异常，相应的处理函数是do_no_page()，而不是do_swap_page()。代码如下：
static int do_no_page(struct mm_struct * mm, struct vm_area_struct * vma,
unsigned long address, int write_access, pte_t *page_table)
{
struct page * new_page;
pte_t entry;
if (!vma->vm_ops || !vma->vm_ops->nopage)
return do_anonymous_page(mm, vma, page_table, write_access, address);
/*
* The third argument is "no_share", which tells the low-level code
* to copy, not share the page even if sharing is possible. It‘s
* essentially an early COW detection.
*/
new_page = vma->vm_ops->nopage(vma, address & PAGE_MASK, (vma->vm_flags & VM_SHARED)?0:write_access);//调用filemap_nopage
if (new_page == NULL) /* no page was available -- SIGBUS */
return 0;
if (new_page == NOPAGE_OOM)
return -1;
++mm->rss;
/*
* This silly early PAGE_DIRTY setting removes a race
* due to the bad i386 page protection. But it‘s valid
* for other architectures too.
*
* Note that if write_access is true, we either now have
* an exclusive copy of the page, or this is a shared mapping,
* so we can make it writable and dirty to avoid having to
* handle that later.
*/
flush_page_to_ram(new_page);
flush_icache_page(vma, new_page);
entry = mk_pte(new_page, vma->vm_page_prot);
if (write_access) {
entry = pte_mkwrite(pte_mkdirty(entry));
} else if (page_count(new_page) > 1 &&
!(vma->vm_flags & VM_SHARED))
entry = pte_wrprotect(entry);
set_pte(page_table, entry);
/* no need to invalidate: a not-present page shouldn‘t be cached */
update_mmu_cache(vma, address, entry);
return 2; /* Major fault */
} do_no_page会调用filemap_nopage，filemap_nopage会调用ext2_readpage()分配一个空闲内存页面并从文件读入相应的页面，然后建立起映射。标签：
