 *   This is a stand-alone module which implements a unidirectional,
 *   fast pipe using mmap().  Its primary use is to transfer large
 *   amounts of data from a parent process to its child process,
 *   with a buffer in between which decouples blocking conditions
 *   on both sides.  Control information is transferred between the
 *   processes through a socketpair.  See xftest.c for an example on
 *   how to use this module.
