NAME
       /proc/sysvipc/ - System V IPC


DESCRIPTION
       /proc/sysvipc/
              Subdirectory  containing  the  pseudo-files msg, sem and shm.  These files list the
              System V Interprocess Communication (IPC) objects  (respectively:  message  queues,
              semaphores,  and  shared  memory)  that  currently  exist  on the system, providing
              similar information to that available via ipcs(1).  These files  have  headers  and
              are  formatted  (one  IPC  object  per  line)  for  easy understanding.  sysvipc(7)
              provides further background on the information shown by these files.
