NAME

       /proc/sysvipc/ - System V IPC

DESCRIPTION

       /proc/sysvipc/
              Subdirectory  containing  the  pseudo-files  msg,  sem  and  shm.   These  files list the System V
              Interprocess Communication (IPC) objects (respectively: message  queues,  semaphores,  and  shared
              memory)  that  currently  exist on the system, providing similar information to that available via
              ipcs(1).  These files have  headers  and  are  formatted  (one  IPC  object  per  line)  for  easy
              understanding.  sysvipc(7) provides further background on the information shown by these files.
