The /sys entries I'd expect appear,  /proc/iomem contains " d0000000-d0000fff : myfpga", and lsuio sees the properties that I've set. However an mmap() from userspace (either my test program below or lsuio) fails. So close! (at least it would seem)

Maybe there was something obvious I missed, but the only "official" documentation I could locate was http://www.kernel.org/doc/htmldocs/uio-howto.html#using_uio_pdrv , and most everything else was snippets from presentations, papers, and forums that lacked completeness.

That's misleading regarding its use below. The factor you need for mmap
is the number of the mapping, not uio0, uio1...

Does it work with O_RDWR ?
