mmap(9E)

SunOS 4.1 system:

	int xxmmap(dev, off, prot)
 	dev_t		dev;
 	off_t		off;
 	int		prot;

SunOS 5.7 system:

	int xxdevmap(dev_t dev, devmap_cookie_t handle, offset_t off,
 	size_t len, size_t *maplen, u_int model);

In Solaris 7 and subsequent releases, the recommended way for applications to map kernel or device memory is with the devmap(9E) interface. For information on devmap(9E), see Chapter 11, Mapping Device or Kernel Memory.

If the driver checked for root privileges using suser()(), it should now use drv_priv(9F). Because there is no credential pointer passed to devmap(9E), the driver must use ddi_get_cred(9F) to retrieve the credential pointer.
