Hi,
While going through the code of IPC semaphore implementation, I
encountered a statement:
new = ipc_rcu_alloc(sizeof(struct kern_ipc_perm *)*newsize
+sizeof(struct ipc_id_ary))
I am not able to understand how memory will be allocated by the above
statement. Inside the sizeof() operator why do we need "*newsize"? how
does size of interprets *newsize?
from the above code it says get the size of structure and multiply it
which a variable newsize.
so search for the value of newsize or its reference.
