+ * As of July 2007, all known versions of the Linux kernel will sometimes
+ * return EIDRM for a shmctl() operation when EINVAL is correct (it happens
+ * when the low-order 15 bits of the supplied shm ID match the slot number
+ * assigned to a newer shmem segment). We deal with this by assuming that
+ * EIDRM means EINVAL in PGSharedMemoryIsInUse(). This is reasonably safe
+ * since in fact Linux has no excuse for ever returning EIDRM; it doesn't
+ * track removed segments in a way that would allow distinguishing them from
+ * private ones. But someday that code might get upgraded, and we'd have
+ * to have a kernel version test here.

+ * filesystems, because those don't support O_DIRECT.
