NAME
ipc - System V IPC system calls
SYNOPSIS
int ipc(unsigned int call, int first, int second, int
third, void *ptr, long fifth);
DESCRIPTION
ipc is a common kernel entry point for the System V IPC
calls for messages, semaphores, and shared memory. call
determines which IPC function to invoke; the other argu-
ments are passed through to the appropriate call.
User programs should call the appropriate functions by
their usual names. Only standard library implementors and
kernel hackers need to know about ipc.
