NAME
     minherit — control the inheritance of pages

SYNOPSIS
     #include <sys/types.h>
     #include <sys/mman.h>

     int
     minherit(caddr_t addr, size_t len, int inherit);

DESCRIPTION
     The minherit() system call changes the specified pages to have the inher‐
     itance characteristic inherit, which can be set to VM_INHERIT_NONE,
