Subject: Very big shm area
Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2002 19:21:21 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3CFA5411.3030600@freesurf.fr> (raw)
Hello,
I wanted to know if it is possible to have a very big system V shared
memory segment (say about 1Gb) ?
I've quickly looked into the source code of shm.c and shm.h in ipc/ and
I've read the following:
/*
* SHMMAX, SHMMNI and SHMALL are upper limits are defaults which can
* be increased by sysctl
*/
But how far is it possible to increase them ? And which sysctl must be
done ?
Thank you for answering,
--
