mmap.2: Some 'flags' values require a feature test macro to be defined
Add text to NOTES noting that some MAP_* constants are defined only if a suitable feature test macro is defined. See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=542601 Reported-by: Török Edwin <edwintorok@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@gmail.com>

flag is specified, and

is 0 (NULL), then the mapped address will be 0 (NULL).

Certain

.I flags
|

constants are defined only if either

.BR _BSD_SOURCE
|

or
|

.BR _SVID_SOURCE
|

is defined.
|

(Requiring
|
||||
.BR _GNU_SOURCE
|
||||
also suffices,
|
||||
and requiring that macro specifically would have been more logical,
|
||||
since these flags are all Linux specific.)
|

The relevant flags are:

.BR MAP_32BIT ,
|

.BR MAP_ANONYMOUS
|

(and the synonym
|

.BR MAP_ANON ),

.BR MAP_FILE ,

and

.BR MAP_STACK .
|

.SH BUGS
|
||||
On Linux there are no guarantees like those suggested above under

.BR MAP_NORESERVE .
