sem_overview.7: Fix typo (semget => shmget)
PATCH 1/1 sem_overview.7: Fix typo (semget => shmget)
Hi,
The sem_overview(7) man page makes reference to "a System V shared memory segment created using semget(2)". Was this intended to be "shmget(2)"?
Please see attached patch against current git master.
Thanks,
Bo
