Considering we already have
printf("prog #%d: map ids %d %d\n", i, map0_fds[i], map1_fds[i]);
I think your proposed additional printout
printf("verify map:%d val: %d\n", map_id, val);
might be okay. The commit message should be rewritten
to justify this change something like:
we already print out
prog <some number>: map ids <..> <...>
further print out
verify map: ...
will help user to understand the program runs successfully.

I think sleep(2) is unnecessary.
