//! POSIX shared memory
//!
//! # Example
//!
//! ```
//! use rustix::fs::{ftruncate, Mode};
//! use rustix::mm::{mmap, MapFlags, ProtFlags};
//! use rustix::{io, shm};
//! use std::mem::size_of;
//! use std::ptr::null_mut;
//!
//! # fn example() -> io::Result<()> {
//! // A type describing the data to be shared.
//! #[repr(C)]
//! struct MyBufferType {
//!     // …
//! }
//!
//! // Create the shared memory object.
//! let shm_path = "/rustix-shm-example";
//! let fd = shm::open(
//!     shm_path,
//!     shm::OFlags::CREATE | shm::OFlags::EXCL | shm::OFlags::RDWR,
//!     Mode::RUSR | Mode::WUSR,
//! )?;
//!
//! // Resize the shared memory object to the size of our data.
//! ftruncate(&fd, size_of::<MyBufferType>() as u64)?;
//!
//! // Map the shared memory object into our address space.
//! //
//! // SAFETY: We're creating a new mapping that's independent of any existing
//! // memory allocations. There are interesting things to say about *using*
//! // `ptr`, but that's for another safety comment.
//! let ptr = unsafe {
//!     mmap(
//!         null_mut(),
//!         size_of::<MyBufferType>(),
//!         ProtFlags::READ | ProtFlags::WRITE,
//!         MapFlags::SHARED,
//!         &fd,
//!         0,
//!     )?
//! };
//!
//! // Use `ptr`…
//!
//! // Remove the shared memory object name.
//! shm::unlink(shm_path)?;
//! # Ok(())
//! # }
//! ```
