- .SH DESCRIPTION
- The
- .IR <sys/shm.h>
- header shall define the following symbolic constants:
- .IP SHM_RDONLY 12
- Attach read-only (else read-write).
- .IP SHM_RND 12
- Round attach address to SHMLBA.
- .IP SHMLBA 12
- Segment low boundary address multiple.
- .P
- The
- .IR <sys/shm.h>
- header shall define the following data types through
- .BR typedef :
- .IP "\fBshmatt_t\fP" 12
- Unsigned integer used for the number of current attaches that must be
- able to store values at least as large as a type
- .BR "unsigned short" .
- .P
- The
- .IR <sys/shm.h>
- header shall define the
- .BR shmid_ds
- structure, which shall include the following members:
- .sp
- .RS 4
- .nf
- struct ipc_perm shm_perm \fROperation permission structure.\fR
- size_t shm_segsz \fRSize of segment in bytes.\fR
- pid_t shm_lpid \fRProcess ID of last shared memory operation.\fR
- pid_t shm_cpid \fRProcess ID of creator.\fR
- shmatt_t shm_nattch \fRNumber of current attaches.\fR
- time_t shm_atime \fRTime of last \fIshmat\fP\^(\|).\fR
