SHMDT(3P) POSIX Programmer's Manual SHMDT(3P)
This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual. The Linux
implementation of this interface may differ (consult the
corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or
the interface may not be implemented on Linux.
shmdt — XSI shared memory detach operation
#include <sys/shm.h>
int shmdt(const void *shmaddr);
The shmdt() function operates on XSI shared memory (see the Base
Definitions volume of POSIX.1‐2008, Section 3.342, Shared Memory
Object). It is unspecified whether this function interoperates with
the realtime interprocess communication facilities defined in Section
2.8, Realtime.
The shmdt() function detaches the shared memory segment located at
the address specified by shmaddr from the address space of the
calling process.
Upon successful completion, shmdt() shall decrement the value of
shm_nattch in the data structure associated with the shared memory ID
of the attached shared memory segment and return 0. Also, the
shm_dtime timestamp shall be set to the current time, as described in
Section 2.7.1, IPC General Description.
Otherwise, the shared memory segment shall not be detached, shmdt()
shall return −1, and errno shall be set to indicate the error.
The shmdt() function shall fail if:
EINVAL The value of shmaddr is not the data segment start address of
a shared memory segment.
The following sections are informative.
None.
The POSIX Realtime Extension defines alternative interfaces for
interprocess communication. Application developers who need to use
IPC should design their applications so that modules using the IPC
routines described in Section 2.7, XSI Interprocess Communication can
be easily modified to use the alternative interfaces.
None.
None.
