    shm: fix the filename of hugetlb sysv shared memory · 9d66586f
    Eric W. Biederman 提交于
    Some user space tools need to identify SYSV shared memory when examining
    /proc/<pid>/maps.  To do so they look for a block device with major zero, a
    dentry named SYSV<sysv key>, and having the minor of the internal sysv
    shared memory kernel mount.
    
    To help these tools and to make it easier for people just browsing
    /proc/<pid>/maps this patch modifies hugetlb sysv shared memory to use the
    SYSV<key> dentry naming convention.
    
    User space tools will still have to be aware that hugetlb sysv shared
    memory lives on a different internal kernel mount and so has a different
    block device minor number from the rest of sysv shared memory.
