Description Tomasz Torcz 2010-04-20 07:14:06 UTC 
Description of problem:
"--mmap" option is alleged to be ignored since March 2010. But it seems it isn't:

% grep --mmap MeaningOfLife /dev/urandom 
Usage: grep [OPTION]... PATTERN [FILE]...
Try `grep --help' for more information.
% grep MeaningOfLife /dev/urandom 
%

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
grep-2.6.3-1.fc13.x86_64. I've replicated this issue with self-compiled upstream sources, but couldn't find upstream Bugzilla.

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. use "--mmap" switch in grep
  
Actual results:
Triggers something like wrong parameter usage.

Expected results:
Ignoring --mmap
