Date: Tue, 28 Feb 2006 17:10:23 -0600 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed X-OriginalArrivalTime: 28 Feb 2006 23:10:24.0076 (UTC) FILETIME=[277E88C0:01C63CBC] Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Content-Length: 516 Lines: 15 Hello all, VM_SHM is used by DIPC to quickly recognise when we are dealing with a System V IPC segment. It has been "removed" from recent kernels (set to 0). Is there an easy way to find out if a segment is a Sys V shm? if not, I suggest we re-activate it. -Kamran - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
