shared memory deallocation
This is on HP UNIX version 11. I have a shared memory segment that is marked for deallocation .... see below
m 521 0x00000000 D-rw-rw---- oracle dba
The D says it marked for deallocation. I tried to do the ipcrm -m 521. The message said it cannot find the segment. I assume because it is already marked for deallocation.
How do I get rid of this ? (other than re-booting) ..
How can I find out what it is waiting on ?

I need to create a shared library to access an in memory DB. The DB is not huge, but big enough to make it cumbersome to carry around in every single process using the shared library. Luckily, it is pretty static information, so I don't need to worry much about synchronizing the data between... (12 Replies)

I am writing a shared library in Linux (but compatible with other UNIXes) and I want to allow multiple instances to share a piece of memory -- 1 byte is enough. What's the "best" way to do this? I want to optimize for speed and portability.
Obviously, I'll have to worry about mutual exclusion. (0 Replies)
