addr = mmap (NULL, len, PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0); if (addr == 0) error... mpz_export (addr, ...); But frankly, I don't think this will make a very efficient interface, nor syntactically particularly appealing. A huge map will cause a system to thrash, since it cannot communicate to the system that data is not to be reused. Plain I/O will not ask for quite that much memory. We need to work on raw I/O. The present functions mpz_out_raw/mpn_inp_raw have a 32-byte limitation. And wqe lack raw I.O for mpf. -- Torbjörn Please encrypt, key id 0xC8601622 _______________________________________________ gmp-devel mailing list gmp-devel@gmplib.org https://gmplib.org/mailman/listinfo/gmp-devel
