/*
 * As of PostgreSQL 9.3, we normally allocate only a very small amount of
 * System V shared memory, and only for the purposes of providing an
 * interlock to protect the data directory.  The real shared memory block
 * is allocated using mmap().  This works around the problem that many
 * systems have very low limits on the amount of System V shared memory
 * that can be allocated.  Even a limit of a few megabytes will be enough
 * to run many copies of PostgreSQL without needing to adjust system settings.
 *
 * We assume that no one will attempt to run PostgreSQL 9.3 or later on
 * systems that are ancient enough that anonymous shared memory is not
 * supported, such as pre-2.4 versions of Linux.  If that turns out to be
 * false, we might need to add compile and/or run-time tests here and do this
 * only if the running kernel supports it.
 *
 * However, we must always disable this logic in the EXEC_BACKEND case, and
 * fall back to the old method of allocating the entire segment using System V
 * shared memory, because there's no way to attach an anonymous mmap'd segment
 * to a process after exec().  Since EXEC_BACKEND is intended only for
 * developer use, this shouldn't be a big problem.  Because of this, we do
 * not worry about supporting anonymous shmem in the EXEC_BACKEND cases below.
