With System V, AT&T introduced three new forms of IPC facilities (message
|
|
queues, semaphores, and shared memory). While the POSIX committee has not yet
|
|
completed its standardization of these facilities, most implementations do
|
|
support these. In addition, Berkeley (BSD) uses sockets as its primary form
|
|
of IPC, rather than the System V elements. Linux has the ability to use
|
|
both forms of IPC (BSD and System V), although we will not discuss sockets
|
|
until a later chapter.

The Linux implementation of System V IPC was authored by <EM>Krishna Balasubramanian</EM>,
