ipc: introduce shm_rmid_forced sysctl 



Add support for the shm_rmid_forced sysctl.  If set to 1, all shared
memory objects in current ipc namespace will be automatically forced to
use IPC_RMID.

The POSIX way of handling shmem allows one to create shm objects and
call shmdt(), leaving shm object associated with no process, thus
consuming memory not counted via rlimits.

With shm_rmid_forced=1 the shared memory object is counted at least for
one process, so OOM killer may effectively kill the fat process holding
the shared memory.

It obviously breaks POSIX - some programs relying on the feature would
stop working.  So set shm_rmid_forced=1 only if you're sure nobody uses
"orphaned" memory.  Use shm_rmid_forced=0 by default for compatability
reasons.

The feature was previously impemented in -ow as a configure option.

shm_rmid_forced:



Linux lets you set resource limits, including how much memory one

process can consume, via setrlimit(2).  Unfortunately, shared memory

segments are allowed to exist without association with any process, and

thus might not be counted against any resource limits.  If enabled,

shared memory segments are automatically destroyed when their attach

count becomes zero after a detach or a process termination.  It will

also destroy segments that were created, but never attached to, on exit

from the process.  The only use left for IPC_RMID is to immediately

destroy an unattached segment.  Of course, this breaks the way things are

defined, so some applications might stop working.  Note that this

feature will do you no good unless you also configure your resource

limits (in particular, RLIMIT_AS and RLIMIT_NPROC).  Most systems don't

need this.



Note that if you change this from 0 to 1, already created segments

without users and with a dead originative process will be destroyed.
