| |
Hello, I wanted to know if it is possible to have a very big system V shared memory segment (say about 1Gb) ?
I've quickly looked into the source code of shm.c and shm.h in ipc/ and I've read the following: /* * SHMMAX, SHMMNI and SHMALL are upper limits are defaults which can * be increased by sysctl */
But how far is it possible to increase them ? And which sysctl must be done ?
Thank you for answering,
