NAME
       ipc - System V IPC system calls

SYNOPSIS
       int ipc(unsigned int call, int first, int second, int third,
	       void *ptr, long fifth);

DESCRIPTION
       ipc()  is  a  common  kernel entry point for the System V IPC calls for
       messages, semaphores, and shared memory.	  call	determines  which  IPC
       function	 to  invoke;  the  other  arguments  are passed through to the
       appropriate call.

       User-space programs should call	the  appropriate  functions  by	 their
       usual  names.   Only  standard  library implementors and kernel hackers
       need to know about ipc().

CONFORMING TO
       ipc() is Linux-specific, and should not be used in programs intended to
       be portable.

NOTES
       On some architectures—for example x86-64 and ARM—there is no ipc() sys‐
       tem call; instead, msgctl(2), semctl(2), shmctl(2), and	so  on	really
       are implemented as separate system calls.
