Thanks, it works now.

#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <fcntl.h>

#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main() {
        int fd =
open("/sys/class/pci_bus/0000:03/device/0000:03:00.0/resource5",
O_RDWR | O_SYNC);
        printf("fd = %d\n", fd);
        void *addr = mmap(NULL, 512, PROT_READ, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);
        if(addr == MAP_FAILED)  {
                perror("mmap");
        }
        else {
                printf("addr = %p\n", addr);
        }
}

May be its time to add some hints in documentation? :-)
