NAME
       mem - physical memory interface

DESCRIPTION
       The  mem character special device file provides access to physical main
       memory.

       Byte addresses in mem are equivalent to physical memory in RAM.	Refer‐
       ences  to I/O space addresses or to nonexistent RAM will return errors.
       Write accesses to console or PAL memory will also return errors.

RESTRICTIONS
       Because memory is read and written in aligned quadwords (eight contigu‐
       ous  bytes), writing fewer than all the bytes in an aligned quadword is
       a read-modify-write operation that is not protected against  concurrent
       writes to the same quadword.

FILES
       /dev/mem
