<p>Memory mapping of a file as a big array.
<code class="code">map_file fd kind layout shared dims</code>
returns a big array of kind <code class="code">kind</code>, layout <code class="code">layout</code>,
and dimensions as specified in <code class="code">dims</code>. The data contained in
this big array are the contents of the file referred to by
the file descriptor <code class="code">fd</code> (as opened previously with
<code class="code"><span class="constructor">Unix</span>.openfile</code>, for example). The optional <code class="code">pos</code> parameter
is the byte offset in the file of the data being mapped;
it defaults to 0 (map from the beginning of the file).</p>
<p>If <code class="code">shared</code> is <code class="code"><span class="keyword">true</span></code>, all modifications performed on the array
are reflected in the file. This requires that <code class="code">fd</code> be opened
with write permissions. If <code class="code">shared</code> is <code class="code"><span class="keyword">false</span></code>, modifications
performed on the array are done in memory only, using
copy-on-write of the modified pages; the underlying file is not
affected.</p>
<p><code class="code"><span class="constructor">Genarray</span>.map_file</code> is much more efficient than reading
the whole file in a big array, modifying that big array,
and writing it afterwards.</p>
<p>To adjust automatically the dimensions of the big array to
the actual size of the file, the major dimension (that is,
the first dimension for an array with C layout, and the last
dimension for an array with Fortran layout) can be given as
<code class="code">-1</code>. <code class="code"><span class="constructor">Genarray</span>.map_file</code> then determines the major dimension
from the size of the file. The file must contain an integral
number of sub-arrays as determined by the non-major dimensions,
otherwise <code class="code"><span class="constructor">Failure</span></code> is raised.</p>
<p>If all dimensions of the big array are given, the file size is
matched against the size of the big array. If the file is larger
than the big array, only the initial portion of the file is
mapped to the big array. If the file is smaller than the big
array, the file is automatically grown to the size of the big array.
This requires write permissions on <code class="code">fd</code>.</p>
<p>Array accesses are bounds-checked, but the bounds are determined by
the initial call to <code class="code">map_file</code>. Therefore, you should make sure no
other process modifies the mapped file while you're accessing it,
or a SIGBUS signal may be raised. This happens, for instance, if the
file is shrunk.</p>
<p><code class="code"><span class="constructor">Invalid_argument</span></code> or <code class="code"><span class="constructor">Failure</span></code> may be raised in cases where argument
validation fails.</p>
