I had no time to play with it yet, but according to feedback from https://github.com/karelzak/util-linux/issues/1042 there is some kernel regression: The ipcs tests are failing due to a regression in kernels 5.6.8 through 5.6.13. Or mainline commits between 89163f93c6f969da5811af5377cc10173583123b and 5e698222c70257d13ae0816720dde57c56f81e15 (apparently including your 5.7.0-rc0).
