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
