NAME
shm.h, shm - shared memory facility SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/shm.h> DESCRIPTION
The <sys/shm.h> header defines the following symbolic constants: SHM_RDONLY attach read-only (else read-write) SHM_RND round attach address to SHMLBA The <sys/shm.h> header defines the following symbolic value: SHMLBA segment low boundary address multiple The following data types are defined through typedef: shmatt_t Unsigned integer used for the number of current attaches that must be able to store values at least as large as a type unsigned short. The shmid_ds structure contains the following members: struct ipc_perm shm_perm /* operation permission structure */ size_t shm_segsz /* size of segment in bytes */ pid_t shm_lpid /* process ID of last shared memory operation */ pid_t shm_cpid /* process ID of creator */ shmatt_t shm_nattch /* number of current attaches */ time_t shm_atime /* time of last shmat() */ time_t shm_dtime /* time of last shmdt() */ time_t shm_ctime /* time of last change by shmctl() */ The pid_t, time_t, key_t, and size_t types are defined as described in <sys/types.h>. See types.h(3HEAD). In addition, all of the symbols from <sys/ipc.h> are defined when this header is included. ATTRIBUTES

NAME
sys/shm.h - XSI shared memory facility SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/shm.h> DESCRIPTION
The <sys/shm.h> header shall define the following symbolic constants: SHM_RDONLY Attach read-only (else read-write). SHM_RND Round attach address to SHMLBA. The <sys/shm.h> header shall define the following symbolic value: SHMLBA Segment low boundary address multiple. The following data types shall be defined through typedef: shmatt_t Unsigned integer used for the number of current attaches that must be able to store values at least as large as a type unsigned short. The shmid_ds structure shall contain the following members: struct ipc_perm shm_perm Operation permission structure. size_t shm_segsz Size of segment in bytes. pid_t shm_lpid Process ID of last shared memory operation. pid_t shm_cpid Process ID of creator. shmatt_t shm_nattch Number of current attaches. time_t shm_atime Time of last shmat (). time_t shm_dtime Time of last shmdt (). time_t shm_ctime Time of last change by shmctl (). The pid_t, time_t, key_t, and size_t types shall be defined as described in <sys/types.h> . The following shall be declared as functions and may also be defined as macros. Function prototypes shall be provided. void *shmat(int, const void *, int); int shmctl(int, int, struct shmid_ds *); int shmdt(const void *); int shmget(key_t, size_t, int); In addition, all of the symbols from <sys/ipc.h> shall be defined when this header is included. The following sections are informative. APPLICATION USAGE
