Hi linux-embedded,

I'm looking at starting an embedded project in which battery-backed
RAM will be used for the persistent filesystem.  I've been wondering if
programs can be run directly from a ramdisk, using any existing Linux
filesystem.  That is, can RAM disk pages used for storing binaries
in the FS be mapped directly into a process's address space, without
being copied through the page or buffer caches?  I'll be working in a
memory-constrained environment, so this would be handy behavior to have
(and I'd look into implementing it if people think it's possible).

thanks,
