Subject: Update mmap() flags and errors lists
Extend the list of MAP_* macros to include all macros available
to the average program (gcc -E -dM | grep MAP_*)
Extend the list of errno codes.

+@item MAP_32BIT
+Require addresses that can be accessed with a signed 32 bit pointer,
+i.e., within the first 2 GiB. Ignored if MAP_FIXED is specified.
+
+@item MAP_DENYWRITE
+@itemx MAP_EXECUTABLE
+@itemx MAP_FILE
+
+Provided for compatibility. Ignored by the Linux kernel.
+
+@item MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE
+Similar to @code{MAP_FIXED} except the call will fail with
+@code{EEXIST} if the new mapping would overwrite an existing mapping.
+To test for support for this flag, specify MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE without
+MAP_FIXED, and (if the call was successful) check the actual address
+returned. If it does not match the address passed, then this flag is
+not supported.
+
+@item MAP_GROWSDOWN
+This flag is used to make stacks, and is typically only needed inside
+the program loader to set up the main stack for the running process.
+The mapping is created according to the other flags, except an
+additional page just prior to the mapping is marked as a ``guard
+page''. If a write is attempted inside this guard page, that page is
+mapped, the mapping is extended, and a new guard page is created.
+Thus, the mapping continues to grow towards lower addresses until it
+encounters some other mapping.
+
+Note that accessing memory beyond the guard page will not trigger this
+feature. In gcc, use @code{-fstack-clash-protection} to ensure the
+guard page is always touched.
+
+@item MAP_LOCKED
+A hint that requests that mapped pages are locked in memory (i.e. not
+paged out). Note that this is a request and not a requirement; use
+@code{mlock} if locking is required.
+
+@item MAP_POPULATE
+@itemx MAP_NONBLOCK
+@code{MAP_POPULATE} is a hint that requests that the kernel read-ahead
+a file-backed mapping, causing pages to be mapped before they're
+needed. @code{MAP_NONBLOCK} is a hint that requests that the kernel
+@emph{not} attempt such except for pages are already in memory. Note
+that neither of these hints affects future paging activity, use
+@code{mlock} if such needs to be controlled.
+
+@item MAP_NORESERVE
+Asks the kernel to not reserve physical backing (i.e. space in a swap
+device) for a mapping. This would be useful for, for example, a very
+large but sparsely used mapping which need not be limited in total
+length by available RAM, but with very few mapped pages. Note that
+writes to such a mapping may cause a @code{SIGSEGV} if the system is
+unable to map a page due to lack of resources.
+
+On Linux, this flag's behavior may be overwridden by
+@file{/proc/sys/vm/overcommit_memory} as documented in the proc(5) man
+page.
+
+@item MAP_STACK
+Ensures that the resulting mapping is suitable for use as a program
+stack. For example, the use of huge pages might be precluded.
+
+@item MAP_SYNC
+This is a special flag for DAX devices, which tells the kernel to
+write dirty metadata out whenever dirty data is written out. Unlike
+most other flags, this one will fail unless @code{MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE}
+is also given.
