lc_mmapfile - map or unmap files or devices into memory

       The  lc_mmapfile()  function  is  a  convenience  wrapper for mmap(2) which open(2)s and maps a file in a
       single call. See mmap(2) for a full description.

       If prot has the PROT_WRITE flag set, pathname is open(2)'ed with the O_RDWR and O_CREAT  flags  set  (the
       file  is  created and opened read-write), otherwise it is opened O_RDONLY.  The mode for the created file
       can be set by setting st_mode in sb when calling lc_mmapfile().

       If len points to a value greater than zero, ftruncate(2) is called to truncate the file to the  specified
       length. Otherwise, the variable len points to is set to the size of the file.

       When done, the file can be unmapped and the memory freed by calling munmap(3).

              File is zero length.

       On  success, lc_mmapfile() returns a pointer to the mapped area. On error, the value MAP_FAILED (that is,
       (void*)-1 ) is returned, and errno is set to indicate the error.
