Bug ID: 224443
Summary: exp-run: SysV IPC API cleanup
Product: Base System
Version: CURRENT
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Only Me
Priority: ---
Component: kern
Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org
Reporter: bro...@freebsd.org
Blocks: 224299, 224300
The System V message queue and semaphore headers and APIs contain a number of
mistakes. Some types are declared that should not be, and the *id_ds structs
contain kernel-only members.
The review https://reviews.freebsd.org/D13538 contains a patch which removes
the types that should not be declared, fixes the system as required, and
renames the kernel-only, non-standard members to break existing consumers (if
any). This isn't expected to break much as standard autoconf macros exist to
detect the most common issue (improperly declaring union semun). The *is_ds
member changes are to explore the possibility of revising the APIs to remove
the members.
