I have users who need this:
set the following in /usr/src/linux/include/asm/shmparam.h
SHMMAX 128MB
SHMMIN 1
SHMMNI 100
SHMSEG 10
and following in /usr/src/linux/inlude/linux/sem.h
SEMMNI 100
SEMMSL 60
SEMMNS 110
SEMOPM 100
SEMVMX 32767
then recompile and install.
Is there a way to pass these values via append, or anything other than
having a one-off custom kernel config?
:wq!

You can set some of them with sysctl:
% sysctl -a | egrep "sem|shm"
kernel.sem = 250 32000 32 128
kernel.shmmni = 4096
kernel.shmall = 2097152
kernel.shmmax = 33554432
The order of the space separated list in kernel.sem is semmsl semmns
semopm semmni (see /usr/src/linux/ipc/sem.c).
I guess the "missing" variables are no longer needed in kernel 2.4/2.6.
