Hello,
Sorry, I should have given complete information but my thought process was
little slow :) Here is the question as I posted on stackoverflow
(https://superuser.com/questions/1863769/clamav-and-memory-mapped-files):
I am using clamav on Enterprise Linux 9. In order to optimize it's
scanning I am getting list of modified files using fanotify
(https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man7/fanotify.7.html).
But it states " The fanotify API does not report file accesses and
modifications that may occur because of mmap(2), msync(2), and munmap(2).".
Based on this I have two questions:
does clamav scan memory mapped files? If it does, is there a way to
ask clamav to scan just memory mapped files?
Thanks in advance!
Thanks!

Hello,
Does clamav scan memory mapped files? If yes, does it option to scan _just_
memory mapped files?
Thanks in advance,
