Hi,
AIX 5.3
From man shmget()
The following limits apply to shared memory:
* Maximum shared-memory segment size is:
* 256M bytes before AIX 4.3.1
* 2G bytes for AIX 4.3.1 through AIX 5.1
* 64G bytes for 64-bit applications for AIX 5.1 and
later
* Minimum shared-memory segment size is 1 byte.
Are there any system parameters that hold those values (Maximum shared-
memory segment size and Minimum shared-memory segment size)?
Is it possible to get them via sysconf() or other system call?
Thanks,
