NAME
lsipc - show information on IPC facilities currently employed in the
system
SYNOPSIS
lsipc [options]
DESCRIPTION
lsipc shows information on the System V inter-process communication
facilities for which the calling process has read access.
OPTIONS
-i, --id id
Show full details on just the one resource element identified by
id. This option needs to be combined with one of the three resource
options: -m, -q or -s. It is possible to override the default
output format for this option with the --list, --raw, --json or
--export option.
-g, --global
Show system-wide usage and limits of IPC resources. This option may
be combined with one of the three resource options: -m, -q or -s.
The default is to show information about all resources.
-h, --help
Display help text and exit.
-V, --version
Print version and exit.
Resource options
-m, --shmems
Write information about active shared memory segments.
-q, --queues
Write information about active message queues.
-s, --semaphores
Write information about active semaphore sets.
Output formatting
-c, --creator
Show creator and owner.
-e, --export
Produce output in the form of key="value" pairs. All potentially
unsafe value characters are hex-escaped (\x<code>). See also option
--shell.
-J, --json
Use the JSON output format.
-l, --list
Use the list output format. This is the default, except when --id
is used.
-n, --newline
Display each piece of information on a separate line.
--noheadings
Do not print a header line.
--notruncate
Don’t truncate output.
-o, --output list
Specify which output columns to print. Use --help to get a list of
all supported columns.
-b, --bytes
Print size in bytes rather than in human readable format.
-r, --raw
Raw output (no columnation).
-t, --time
Write time information. The time of the last control operation that
changed the access permissions for all facilities, the time of the
last msgsnd(2) and msgrcv(2) operations on message queues, the time
of the last shmat(2) and shmdt(2) operations on shared memory, and
the time of the last semop(2) operation on semaphores.
--time-format type
Display dates in short, full or iso format. The default is short,
this time format is designed to be space efficient and human
readable.
-P, --numeric-perms
Print numeric permissions in PERMS column.
-y, --shell
The column name will be modified to contain only characters allowed
for shell variable identifiers. This is usable, for example, with
--export. Note that this feature has been automatically enabled for
--export in version 2.37, but due to compatibility issues, now it’s
necessary to request this behavior by --shell.
EXIT STATUS
0
if OK,
1
if incorrect arguments specified,
2
if a serious error occurs.
