plock() replacement?

[Andrew Robinson <awr cpu com>]

I'm trying to port an application from HPUX to Linux without knowing alot 
about C and program development. One of the programs calls plock(), which 
according to the man page on HPUX locks the application's memory. Using 
"man -k", I cannot find an analogous routine on my Redhat 7.3 installation. 
Anyone know of a suitable replacement for plock()? Anyone know of a 
suitable forum to pose this question?

Thanks!

Andrew Robinson
