		1671	The memory map associated with the C<$scalar> is automatically removed
		1672	when the C<$scalar> is destroyed, or when the C<IO::AIO::mmap> or
		1673	C<IO::AIO::munmap> functions are called.
		1674
		1675	This calls the C<mmap>(2) function internally. See your system's manual
		1676	page for details on the C<$length>, C<$prot> and C<$flags> parameters.
		1677
		1678	The C<$length> must be larger than zero and smaller than the actual
		1679	filesize.
		1680
		1681	C<$prot> is a combination of C<IO::AIO::PROT_NONE>, C<IO::AIO::PROT_EXEC>,
		1682	C<IO::AIO::PROT_READ> and/or C<IO::AIO::PROT_WRITE>,
		1683
		1684	C<$flags> can be a combination of C<IO::AIO::MAP_SHARED> or
		1685	C<IO::AIO::MAP_PRIVATE>, or a number of system-specific flags (when
		1686	not available, the are defined as 0): C<IO::AIO::MAP_ANONYMOUS>
		1687	(which is set to C<MAP_ANON> if your system only provides this
		1688	constant), C<IO::AIO::MAP_HUGETLB>, C<IO::AIO::MAP_LOCKED>,
		1689	C<IO::AIO::MAP_NORESERVE>, C<IO::AIO::MAP_POPULATE> or
		1690	C<IO::AIO::MAP_NONBLOCK>
		1691
		1692	If C<$fh> is C<undef>, then a file descriptor of C<-1> is passed.
		1693
		1694	C<$offset> is the offset from the start of the file - it generally must be
		1695	a multiple of C<IO::AIO::PAGESIZE> and defaults to C<0>.
		1696
		1697	Example:
		1698
		1699	use Digest::MD5;
		1700	use IO::AIO;
		1701
		1702	open my $fh, "<verybigfile"
		1703	or die "$!";
		1704
		1705	IO::AIO::mmap my $data, -s $fh, IO::AIO::PROT_READ, IO::AIO::MAP_SHARED, $fh
		1706	or die "verybigfile: $!";
		1707
		1708	my $fast_md5 = md5 $data;
		1709
		1710	=item IO::AIO::munmap $scalar
		1711
		1712	Removes a previous mmap and undefines the C<$scalar>.
		1713
		1714	=item IO::AIO::munlock $scalar, $offset = 0, $length = undef
		1715
		1716	Calls the C<munlock> function, undoing the effects of a previous
		1717	C<aio_mlock> call (see its description for details).
		1718
		1719	=item IO::AIO::munlockall
		1720
		1721	Calls the C<munlockall> function.
		1722
		1723	On systems that do not implement C<munlockall>, this function returns
		1724	ENOSYS, otherwise the return value of C<munlockall>.

		1737
		1738	It is recommended to use L<AnyEvent::AIO> to integrate IO::AIO
		1739	automatically into many event loops:
		1740
		1741	# AnyEvent integration (EV, Event, Glib, Tk, POE, urxvt, pureperl...)
		1742	use AnyEvent::AIO;
		1743
		1744	You can also integrate IO::AIO manually into many event loops, here are
		1745	some examples of how to do this:
		1746
		1747	# EV integration
		1748	my $aio_w = EV::io IO::AIO::poll_fileno, EV::READ, \&IO::AIO::poll_cb;
		1749
		1750	# Event integration
		1751	Event->io (fd => IO::AIO::poll_fileno,
		1752	poll => 'r',
		1753	cb => \&IO::AIO::poll_cb);
		1754
		1755	# Glib/Gtk2 integration
		1756	add_watch Glib::IO IO::AIO::poll_fileno,
		1757	in => sub { IO::AIO::poll_cb; 1 };
		1758
		1759	# Tk integration
		1760	Tk::Event::IO->fileevent (IO::AIO::poll_fileno, "",
		1761	readable => \&IO::AIO::poll_cb);
		1762
		1763	# Danga::Socket integration
		1764	Danga::Socket->AddOtherFds (IO::AIO::poll_fileno =>
		1765	\&IO::AIO::poll_cb);
