		439	Unlike with other C<aio_> functions, it makes a lot of sense to use

		1112	=item aio_msync $scalar, $offset = 0, $length = undef, flags = 0, $callback->($status)
		1113
		1114	This is a rather advanced IO::AIO call, which only works on mmap(2)ed
		1115	scalars (see the C<IO::AIO::mmap> function, although it also works on data
		1116	scalars managed by the L<Sys::Mmap> or L<Mmap> modules, note that the
		1117	scalar must only be modified in-place while an aio operation is pending on
		1118	it).
		1119
		1120	It calls the C<msync> function of your OS, if available, with the memory
		1121	area starting at C<$offset> in the string and ending C<$length> bytes
		1122	later. If C<$length> is negative, counts from the end, and if C<$length>
		1123	is C<undef>, then it goes till the end of the string. The flags can be
		1124	a combination of C<IO::AIO::MS_ASYNC>, C<IO::AIO::MS_INVALIDATE> and
		1125	C<IO::AIO::MS_SYNC>.
		1126
		1127	=item aio_mtouch $scalar, $offset = 0, $length = undef, flags = 0, $callback->($status)
		1128
		1129	This is a rather advanced IO::AIO call, which works best on mmap(2)ed
		1130	scalars.
		1131
		1132	It touches (reads or writes) all memory pages in the specified
		1133	range inside the scalar. All caveats and parameters are the same
		1134	as for C<aio_msync>, above, except for flags, which must be either
		1135	C<0> (which reads all pages and ensures they are instantiated) or
		1136	C<IO::AIO::MT_MODIFY>, which modifies the memory page s(by reading and
		1137	writing an octet from it, which dirties the page).
		1138
		1139	=item aio_mlock $scalar, $offset = 0, $length = undef, $callback->($status)
		1140
		1141	This is a rather advanced IO::AIO call, which works best on mmap(2)ed
		1142	scalars.
		1143
		1144	It reads in all the pages of the underlying storage into memory (if any)
		1145	and locks them, so they are not getting swapped/paged out or removed.
		1146
		1147	If C<$length> is undefined, then the scalar will be locked till the end.

		1149	On systems that do not implement C<mlock>, this function returns C<-1>
		1150	and sets errno to C<ENOSYS>.
		1151
		1152	Note that the corresponding C<munlock> is synchronous and is

		1637
		1638	Memory-maps a file (or anonymous memory range) and attaches it to the
		1639	given C<$scalar>, which will act like a string scalar.
		1640
		1641	The only operations allowed on the scalar are C<substr>/C<vec> that don't
		1642	change the string length, and most read-only operations such as copying it
		1643	or searching it with regexes and so on.
		1644
		1645	Anything else is unsafe and will, at best, result in memory leaks.
		1646
		1647	The memory map associated with the C<$scalar> is automatically removed
		1648	when the C<$scalar> is destroyed, or when the C<IO::AIO::mmap> or
		1649	C<IO::AIO::munmap> functions are called.
		1650
		1651	This calls the C<mmap>(2) function internally. See your system's manual
		1652	page for details on the C<$length>, C<$prot> and C<$flags> parameters.
		1653
		1654	The C<$length> must be larger than zero and smaller than the actual
		1655	filesize.
		1656
		1657	C<$prot> is a combination of C<IO::AIO::PROT_NONE>, C<IO::AIO::PROT_EXEC>,
		1658	C<IO::AIO::PROT_READ> and/or C<IO::AIO::PROT_WRITE>,
		1659
		1660	C<$flags> can be a combination of C<IO::AIO::MAP_SHARED> or
		1661	C<IO::AIO::MAP_PRIVATE>, or a number of system-specific flags (when
		1662	not available, the are defined as 0): C<IO::AIO::MAP_ANONYMOUS>
		1663	(which is set to C<MAP_ANON> if your system only provides this
		1664	constant), C<IO::AIO::MAP_HUGETLB>, C<IO::AIO::MAP_LOCKED>,
		1665	C<IO::AIO::MAP_NORESERVE>, C<IO::AIO::MAP_POPULATE> or
		1666	C<IO::AIO::MAP_NONBLOCK>
		1667
		1668	If C<$fh> is C<undef>, then a file descriptor of C<-1> is passed.
		1669
		1670	C<$offset> is the offset from the start of the file - it generally must be
		1671	a multiple of C<IO::AIO::PAGESIZE> and defaults to C<0>.
		1672
		1673	Example:
		1674
		1675	use Digest::MD5;
		1676	use IO::AIO;
		1677
		1678	open my $fh, "<verybigfile"

		1685
		1686	=item IO::AIO::munmap $scalar

		1688	Removes a previous mmap and undefines the C<$scalar>.
		1689
		1690	=item IO::AIO::munlock $scalar, $offset = 0, $length = undef
		1691
		1692	Calls the C<munlock> function, undoing the effects of a previous

		1694
		1695	=item IO::AIO::munlockall
		1696
		1697	Calls the C<munlockall> function.

		1713
		1714	It is recommended to use L<AnyEvent::AIO> to integrate IO::AIO
		1715	automatically into many event loops:
		1716
		1717	# AnyEvent integration (EV, Event, Glib, Tk, POE, urxvt, pureperl...)
		1718	use AnyEvent::AIO;
		1719
		1720	You can also integrate IO::AIO manually into many event loops, here are
		1721	some examples of how to do this:
		1722
		1723	# EV integration
		1724	my $aio_w = EV::io IO::AIO::poll_fileno, EV::READ, \&IO::AIO::poll_cb;
		1725
		1726	# Event integration
		1727	Event->io (fd => IO::AIO::poll_fileno,
		1728	poll => 'r',
		1729	cb => \&IO::AIO::poll_cb);
		1730
		1731	# Glib/Gtk2 integration
		1732	add_watch Glib::IO IO::AIO::poll_fileno,
		1733	in => sub { IO::AIO::poll_cb; 1 };

		1735	# Tk integration
