Hi,

Bigarray.Genarray.map_file uses mmap to "read" a file. How can
I specify an offset in the file (like the offset parameter in mmap)?
Unix.lseek doesn't help me.

How can I do an munmap? I ask because of these lines from the man-page:

       The munmap system call deletes the mappings for the speci-
       fied address  range,  and  causes  further  references  to
       addresses within the range to generate invalid memory ref-
       erences.  The region is also automatically  unmapped  when
       the process is terminated.  On the other hand, closing the
       file descriptor does not unmap the region.

Thanks,
