int remap_file_pages(void *start, size_t size, int prot, ssize_t pgoff, int flags);
要建立一個非線性對映，我們執行以下步驟：

|---|---|
| 1. | Use mmap() to create a mapping (which is initially linear). This mapping must be created with the MAP_SHARED flag. |
| 2. | Use one or more calls to remap_file_pages() to rearrange the correspondence between the pages of the mapping and the pages of the file. It is possible to map the same page of a file into multiple locations within the mapped region. |
The start argument serves two purposes. First, it identifies the mapping whose pages we want to rearrange. Thus, start must be an address that falls within a region previously mapped by a call to mmap(). Second, start specifies the address at which the file pages identified by pgoff and size will be placed.
The values specified in start and size should be multiples of the system page size. If they are not, then the kernel rounds both values down to the nearest multiple of the page size.
The prot argument must be specified as 0.
The flags argument has the same meaning as for mmap(), but all flags other thanMAP_NONBLOCK are ignored.

| EINVAL | start does not refer to a valid mapping created with theMAP_SHARED flag. |
| EINVAL | start, size, prot, or pgoff is invalid. |
