int main()
{
	int fd;
	char data[20];
	__u8 *start_addr,*end_addr;
	int PageSize;

	if ( (PageSize = sysconf(_SC_PAGE_SIZE)) < 0) {
	    perror("sysconf() Error=");
		    return -1;
	}
	printf("PageSize = %d\n",PageSize);

	if((fd = open("/dev/mem", O_RDWR | O_SYNC)) == -1)
	{ 
		printf("Error opening /dev/mem\n");
		return -1;
	}

	start_addr = mmap(0, PageSize, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd,
										0);
	if(start_addr == MAP_FAILED)
	{
		printf("enc_status map failed %s\n", strerror(errno));
		return -1;
	}

	end_addr = start_addr + (4096 - 1);
	strcpy(data, "Test Msg");
	printf("\n%s:Writing NVRAM.......\n", __FUNCTION__);
	if(write(fd, data, strlen(data)) <= 0)
	{
		printf("%s: Not able to write on NVRAM. %s.\n", __FUNCTION__,
				strerror(errno));
		return -1;
	}
	printf("\n%s:Synching NVRAM.......\n", __FUNCTION__);
	if(msync(start_addr, PageSize, MS_SYNC) <= 0)
	{

		return -1;
	}
	printf("\n%s:reading NVRAM.......\n", __FUNCTION__);
	strcpy(data, "");

	printf("%s: data  %s.\n", __FUNCTION__, data);
