Shared Memory
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
Shared memory interfaces are only available with the NuttX kernel
|
|
build (``CONFIG_BUILD_KERNEL=y``). These interfaces support user
|
|
memory regions that can be shared between multiple user processes.
|
|
The user interfaces are provided in the standard header file
|
|
``include/sys/shm.h>``. All logic to support shared memory is
|
|
implemented within the NuttX kernel with the exception of two
|
|
low-level functions that are require to configure the
|
|
platform-specific MMU resources. Those interfaces are described
|
|
below:
|
|
|
|
.. c:function:: int up_shmat(FAR uintptr_t *pages, unsigned int npages, uintptr_t vaddr)
|
|
|
|
Attach, i.e, map, on shared memory region to a user virtual address.
|
|
|
|
:param pages: A pointer to the first element in a array of
|
|
physical address, each corresponding to one page of memory.
|
|
:param npages: The number of pages in the list of physical pages
|
|
to be mapped.
|
|
:param vaddr: The virtual address corresponding to the beginning
|
|
of the (contiguous) virtual address region.
|
|
|
|
:return: Zero (OK) is returned on success; a negated errno value is returned on failure.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. c:function:: int up_shmdt(uintptr_t vaddr, unsigned int npages)
|
|
|
|
Detach, i.e, unmap, on shared memory region from a user virtual address.
|
|
|
|
:param vaddr: The virtual address corresponding to the beginning
|
|
of the (contiguous) virtual address region.
|
|
:param npages: T The number of pages to be unmapped.
|
|
|
|
:return: Zero (OK) is returned on success; a negated errno value is returned on failure.
