Oops,
3rd and 5th items are both about same thing,
and neither of them is completely correct.
Please replace these two with :
* when mmapping an empty file, mmap() returns a valid address,
but reading from this address causes a 'bus error'.
Bus error is not mentioned in documentation, and
A valid address is returned despite that there is no valid memorylocation.
