So this would not work in general on OpenBSD? On the other hand there
are certain SHM-settings on OpenBSD:
kern.sysvshm=1
kern.malloc.kmemnames=.......
kern.malloc.kmemstat.shm=(inuse = 2, calls = 2, memuse = 2K, limblocks =
0, mapblocks = 0, maxused = 2K, limit = 78644K, spare = 0, sizes =
(256,1024))
kern.shminfo.shmmax=33554432
kern.shminfo.shmmin=1
kern.shminfo.shmmni=128
kern.shminfo.shmseg=128
kern.shminfo.shmall=8192
Doesn't this mean there is shared memory support?
Yes it looks like there is in some form. But apparently the POSIX
shm_open() function to get access to it is not supported in OpenBSD 3.x
and no better signs of it in the more recent ones either. :(
I'm not sure why the "fake" memory access wrappers which are supposed to
take over are failing.
Or should it with the wrappers?
It should be opening regular non-shared memory with the wrappers AFAIK.
