Is there any soft of project underway to implement memory mapped files
in Linux? It seems that the shared library code is pretty close except
that it doesn't support writting pages back to the library file.

Has anyone looked into what would be involved?

Along with this is there any reason to keep the 4giga byte total
limit for processes rather than having seperate page tables for
each process?
