The -i option allows a specific resource id to be specified. Only information on this id will be printed.
Resources may be specified as follows:
-m shared memory segments
-q message queues
-s semaphore arrays
-a all (this is the default)
The output format may be specified as follows:

CONFORMING TO
The Linux ipcs utility is not fully compatible to the POSIX ipcs utility. The Linux version does not support the -b and -o options, but
does support the -l and -u options not defined by POSIX. The portable application shall not use the -a, -b, -o, -l, and -u options.
