[Devel] [RFC PATCH 4/5] use next syscall data to change the behavior of IPC_SET

[Nadia.Derbey at bull.net]

[PATCH 04/05]

This patch uses the value written into the next_syscall_data proc file
as a flag to change the way msgctl(IPC_SET), semctl(IPC_SET) and
shmctl(IPC_SET) behave.

When "LONG1 1" is echoed to this file, xxxctl(IPC_SET) will set the time
fields and the pid fields according to what is specified in the input
parameter (while currently only the permission fields are allowed to be set).
The following syscalls are impacted:
. msgctl(IPC_SET)
. semctl(IPC_SET)
. shmctl(IPC_SET)

This makes it easy to restart an ipc object exactly is it was during the
checkpoint phase.
