linux syscall madvise

[Pierre Abbat <phma@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I haven't managed to get ltp running, but I have run some Linux programs. I 
get this message in dmesg:

linux: syscall madvise is obsoleted or not implemented

This call is used to tell the kernel what the program plans to do with a 
region of memory. Values used in Linux but not BSD, according to the man 
pages, are:
MADV_REMOVE: seems to mean the same as MADV_FREE
MADV_DONTFORK: when fork() is next called, the child will not inherit the 
memory
MADV_DOFORK: opposite of MADV_DONTFORK
