Then it is not capable of ftruncate arbitrarily large in a hardware's
view of arbitrarily large which tends to be 1-bit smaller than the
largest container.
The goal here is to map a file into the address space. What's your use
case for mapping a file-like thing that is bigger than any real file
and can't be written out to the disk?
Consider that configurations in which maximal file size is bigger than
half of address space are quite common. And not just on 32-bit HW.
Of course, what is considered "half of address space" is not a very
simple question by itself. Take x86-64. Is its address space 2**64 or
2*48? Take aarch64. Is its address space 2**64 or 2**49? Or, may be,
2**56?
