In my applications I use a great numer of shared memory segments and
corresponding semaphores for locking. From time to time I seem to exceed
the max. numbers of allowed semaphores SEMMNI. This is set to 128 in
include/linux/sem.h which seems quite low to me.

Any reason why not to increase this number to 512 or whatever ? I dont use
semaphore-arrays but only scalar semaphores.

thnx,
peter

ps: any better place to ask this than here ?

#define LOG_BUF_LEN (16???) /* This must be a power of two */

Don't remember the original setting above to (65536)
