shm_detach - Disconnects from shared memory segment

SYNOPSIS
bool shm_detach (resource $shm_identifier) DESCRIPTION
shm_detach(3) disconnects from the shared memory given by the $shm_identifier created by shm_attach(3). Remember, that shared memory still exist in the Unix system and the data is still present. PARAMETERS
o $shm_identifier - A shared memory resource handle as returned by shm_attach(3) RETURN VALUES
shm_detach(3) always returns TRUE. SEE ALSO

SHMGET(2)						      BSD System Calls Manual							 SHMGET(2)

NAME
shmget -- get shared memory segment LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc) SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/shm.h> int shmget(key_t key, size_t size, int shmflg); DESCRIPTION
shmget() returns the shared memory identifier associated with the key key. A shared memory segment is created if either key is equal to IPC_PRIVATE, or key does not have a shared memory segment identifier associated with it, and the IPC_CREAT bit is set in shmflg. If both the IPC_CREAT bit and the IPC_EXCL bit are set in shmflg, and key has a shared mem- ory segment identifier associated with it already, the operation will fail. If a new shared memory segment is created, the data structure associated with it (the shmid_ds structure, see shmctl(2)) is initialized as follows: o shm_perm.cuid and shm_perm.uid are set to the effective uid of the calling process. o shm_perm.gid and shm_perm.cgid are set to the effective gid of the calling process. o shm_perm.mode is set to the lower 9 bits of shmflg. o shm_lpid, shm_nattch, shm_atime, and shm_dtime are set to 0. o shm_ctime is set to the current time. o shm_segsz is set to the value of size. RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion a positive shared memory segment identifier is returned. Otherwise, -1 is returned and the global variable errno is set to indicate the error. ERRORS
[EACCES] A shared memory segment is already associated with key and the caller has no permission to access it. [EEXIST] Both IPC_CREAT and IPC_EXCL are set in shmflg, and a shared memory segment is already associated with key. [EINVAL] No shared memory segment is to be created, and a shared memory segment exists for key, but the size of the segment associ- ated with it is less than size, which is non-zero. A shared memory segment is to be created, and size is less than the system imposed minimum, or greater than the system imposed maximum (refer to the kern.ipc values in sysctl(7)). [ENOENT] IPC_CREAT is not set in shmflg and no shared memory segment associated with key was found. [ENOMEM] There is not enough memory left to create a shared memory segment of the requested size. [ENOSPC] A new shared memory identifier could not be created because the system limit for the number of shared memory identifiers has been reached. SEE ALSO
