  73              Print verbose output. Display output as pmap(1) does, showing
  74              what advice is being applied where. This can be useful when the
  75              advice is being applied to a named region (for example, private,
  76              shared, and so forth) to get feedback on exactly where the advice
  77              is being applied.

  81        pmadvise tries to process all legal options. If an illegal address
  82        range is specified, an error message is printed and the offending
  83        option is skipped.  pmadvise quits without processing any options and
  84        prints a usage message when there is a syntax error.
  85 
  86 
  87        If conflicting advice is given on a region, the order of precedence is
  88        from most specific advice to least, that is, most general. In other
  89        words, advice specified for a particuliar address range takes
  90        precedence over advice for heap and stack which in turn takes
  91        precedence over advice for private and shared memory.
  92 
  93 
  94        Moreover, the advice in each of the following groups are mutually
  95        exclusive from the other advice within the same group:
  96 
  97          MADV_NORMAL, MADV_RANDOM, MADV_SEQUENTIAL
  98          MADV_WILLNEED, MADV_DONTNEED, MADV_FREE, MADV_PURGE
  99          MADV_ACCESS_DEFAULT, MADV_ACCESS_LWP, MADV_ACCESS_MANY
