[root@localhost mmap]# ./3 text
mmap success p=bcde6000
start= bcde6000
start= hello,evreyone

ok,let me exchange a text file

any text file with the size of largger than 4096B(4KB),for example text1

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root   4097 2011-07-07 03:49 text1

run it

[root@localhost mmap]# ./3 text1
mmap success p=bcde6000
start= bcde6000
Segmentation fault
[root@localhost mmap]# 

segment  fault---shit，非法内存访问，应该就像windows下的您访问的内存不能为read一个级别的错误信息(内核发出的)

if i remve 2 characters from text1,

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root   4095 2011-07-07 03:53 text1

[root@localhost mmap]# ./3 text1
mmap success p=bcde6000
start= bcde6000

it's ok,

if the file is largger than the length of allocted page in size,when i try to read the file as a string totally,"segment  fault"  will occur .

actually,when reading the data out of the allocted page(4KB) ,"segment  fault"  will occur 

   start=mmap((void*)0xbcde6600,10, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE,MAP_PRIVATE,fd,0);

the second argument is set to 10----indicates the allocted one page(4KB)

we can first get the size of file using fstat function,and pass the size to the second arg,

the modifed code is

//this is the file 3.c
#include <sys/mman.h>
#include<stdio.h>
#include<unistd.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include<malloc.h>
#include <string.h>
int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
    struct stat buf;
    int fd;
    int i;
    char *start;
    fd = open(argv[1],O_RDWR);
    fstat(fd,&buf);
    if (fd<0)
    {
        printf("open file  error /n");
        return 0;
    }
   start=mmap((void*)0xbcde6600,buf.st_size, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE,MAP_PRIVATE,fd,0);
    if (start!=NULL)
    {
        printf("mmap success p=%x\n",start);
    }
/*
for(i=0;i<4200;i++)
{	
	printf("address= %x\n",start);
	printf("content= %d\n",*start);
	printf("content= %c\n\n",*start);
	start++;
}	
*/
printf("start= %x\n",start);//output the start as a hex number
printf("start= %s\n",start);//output the start as a string
getchar() ;
    munmap(start,10);
    close(fd);
    return 0;
}

and the maps of memory after it running is showed as below
