Subject[PATCH] NOMMU: Make SYSV SHM nattch work correctly
Date
From: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

Make the SYSV SHM nattch counter work correctly by forcing multiple VMAs to be
produced to represent MAP_SHARED segments, even if they overlap exactly.

Using this test program:

http://people.redhat.com/~dhowells/doshm.c

Run as:

doshm sysv

I can see nattch going from one before the patch:

# /doshm sysv

nattch 1

To two after the patch:

nattch 2

That's +1 to nattch for each shmat() made.
