By default, Linux allows processes to commit more virtual memory than available in the system. If that memory is not accessed, no physical memory + swap is actually used. </p> <p> The reason for this behaviour is that Linux tries to optimize memory usage on forked processes; fork() creates a full copy of the process space, but with overcommitted memory, in this new forked instance only pages which have been written to actually need to be allocated by the kernel. If applications access more memory than available, then the kernel must free memory in the hard way: the OOM (Out Of Memory)-killer picks some processes to kill in order to recover memory. </p> <p> <span class="bold"><strong>Boost.Interprocess</strong></span> has no way to change this behaviour and users might suffer the OOM-killer when accessing shared memory. According to the <a href="http://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/vm/overcommit-accounting" target="_top">Kernel documentation</a>, the Linux kernel supports several overcommit modes. If you need non-kill guarantees in your application, you should change this overcommit behaviour. </p> </div> </div> <div class="section"> <div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"> <a name="interprocess.acknowledgements_notes.notes_freebsd"></a><a class="link" href="acknowledgements_notes.html#interprocess.acknowledgements_notes.notes_freebsd" title="Notes for FreeBSD users">Notes for FreeBSD users</a> </h3></div></div></div> <div class="toc"><dl class="toc"><dt><span class="section"><a href="acknowledgements_notes.html#interprocess.acknowledgements_notes.notes_freebsd.notes_freebsd_umtx_vnode_persistent">Process-shared synchronization primitives and <span class="emphasis"><em>kern.ipc.umtx_vnode_persistent</em></span></a></span></dt></dl></div> <div class="section"> <div class="titlepage"><div><div><h4 class="title"> <a name="interprocess.acknowledgements_notes.notes_freebsd.notes_freebsd_umtx_vnode_persistent"></a><a class="link" href="acknowledgements_notes.html#interprocess.acknowledgements_notes.notes_freebsd.notes_freebsd_umtx_vnode_persistent" title="Process-shared synchronization primitives and kern.ipc.umtx_vnode_persistent">Process-shared synchronization primitives and <span class="emphasis"><em>kern.ipc.umtx_vnode_persistent</em></span></a> </h4></div></div></div> <p> Starting from FreeBSD 11, declares the macro _POSIX_THREAD_PROCESS_SHARED.
