[PATCH v7 2/4] ipc: IPCMNI limit check for semmni

From: Waiman Long
Date: Mon May 07 2018 - 17:02:13 EST


For SysV semaphores, the semmni value is the last part of the 4-element
sem number array. To make semmni behave in a similar way to msgmni and
shmmni, we can't directly use the _minmax handler. Instead, a special
sem specific handler is added to check the last argument to make sure
that it is limited to the [0, IPCMNI] range. An error will be returned
if this is not the case.
