Message-ID: <547@rna.UUCP> Date: Tue, 23-Sep-86 16:45:49 EDT Article-I.D.: rna.547 Posted: Tue Sep 23 16:45:49 1986 Date-Received: Wed, 24-Sep-86 05:09:29 EDT Organization: Rockefeller Neurobiology Lines: 21 x Has anyone used the System V-style shared memory facility in Ultrix-32m (Microvax II), especially in double-buffered I/O operations ? For example, the continuous DMA'ing in of data while DMA'ing out to magtape. one process DMA's into shared memory and then signals the second process for it to DMA's to magtape while the first process fills the second buffer. Can someone mail me a simple C program in which to processes communicate using these System V shared memory calls ? Please educate a poor 4.XBSD user to the wonders of shared memory. Thanks.
