Description
Command-line interface to SysV semaphores and message queues
Installation Instructions
This is an RPM for the ipcmd project, formerly at https://code.google.com/archive/p/ipcmd/, now at https://github.com/nathanweeks/ipcmd/
ipcmd exposes the XSI (SysV) semaphore and message queue APIs through a simple command-line interface, enabling scriptable inter-process communication and synchronization. It can be used to:
-
Serialize the execution of certain commands during a parallel make (e.g., the "ar" command when creating static libraries)
-
Limit the number of concurrently executing processes
-
Add process synchronization to scripts (e.g., barriers) and prevent concurrent access to critical sections
-
Prototype or debug applications that use SysV semaphores or message queues
