It is the offset from the start of the shared object to
start the mapping.
If mapping physical memory (shm_open("/dev/shmem/physical",…)
then it is the physical address.
If dealing with a shared memory object, it can allow you to start
your process’s mapping part way through the object.

I don’t think so – I think it should be a multiple of PAGESIZE.
