Hi. At Pike Conference 2017 it was decided that we ought to hold a more informal meeting in Linköping ~ once every quarter. As the 6 month mark from the latest conference is coming up soon, it seems time to announce the second such meeting for 2024: Pike Meet-up 2024-Q2 Date: 2024-05-11 (Sat) Time: 10:00 - afternoon/evening Place: Roxen IS AB Storgatan 46 Linköping Welcome! /grubba

mmap'ing a device with System.Memory

Currently this isn't possible - if you attempt to open System.Memory("/dev/some-device") it rejects it due to being unable to query the length of the file.

I think that that's the only thing stopping it, although I'm not entirely certain. ChrisA
