hi folks,

is there any way to do it without using shared memory?

Scenario:
You have many processes: p0, p1, p2, p3, ... , pN
p1, ... , pN have created a buffer and p1 wants to
get concurrent access to all these buffers.

When using shmem, each process would have to create
it's own shmem segment, which means to 'generate' a
unique key.

Is there any other method? mmap, mprotect?

thanks
