Hi, I am currently working on a board powered by a MIPS processor, using Linux kernel 2.4.2. The problem that I am facing is, whenever I create a shared memory using shmget(), shmat(), etc. APIs, I always see that the shared mem is created with 0 bytes. As a result any access to it bombs the process. Anyone has any idea, I will be grateful for your response. I had a look at the patch-2.4.2-ac23, which talks about the some shared mem lock up problem. But I cannot apply the patch as it is because my customer has pruned the kernel so much that the patch does not apply right away. Pl. help (by CCing your response to my mail id also).
