Is it possible somehow to mmap() a raw device such as /dev/rda0s2b? I am writing a program that needs very fast access to raw data, it almost creates its own filesystem in its own right. I'd much rather be able to mmap() the raw drive rather than having to go through the filesystem. -Matt ------------------------------[ Matt Hamilton ]-------------------------------- System Administrator System Administrator Badock Hall Clintondale Aviation Bristol University, UK Clifton Park, NY, USA http://www.bad.bris.ac.uk http://www.clintondale.com matt@bad.bris.ac.uk matt@clintondale.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
