Morning all ...
Just wondering if anyone has looked at (or does it already exist)
creating a simple SysV SHM compatibility API, so that it 'plugs-n-plays'
nicer with existing programs?
For instance, what is equivalent to:
int shmget(key_t key, int size, int flag);
Looking through unix/shm.c, I would guess:
APR_DECLARE(apr_status_t) apr_shm_create(apr_shm_t **m,
apr_size_t reqsize,
const char *filename,
apr_pool_t *pool)
but, of course, the fields don't match up ...
Same with:
void * shmat(int shmid, void *addr, int flag);
being:
APR_DECLARE(apr_status_t) apr_shm_attach(apr_shm_t **m,
const char *filename,
apr_pool_t *pool)
What I'm looking to do with the PgSQL stuff is have a function:
pg_shmget()
that has an if defined(USE_APR), replace the standard shmget()/etc calls
with an appropriate apr_* call ... but looking at the APR API more
closely, I'm not sure if they are as 'similar' as I originally
thought/hoped ... :(
