4 * Platform-independent API for shared memory support.
6 * Every port is expected to support shared memory with approximately
7 * SysV-ish semantics; in particular, a memory block is not anonymous
8 * but has an ID, and we must be able to tell whether there are any
9 * remaining processes attached to a block of a specified ID.
11 * To simplify life for the SysV implementation, the ID is assumed to
12 * consist of two unsigned long values (these are key and ID in SysV
13 * terms). Other platforms may ignore the second value if they need
