There's a libipc in ".../testcases/kernel/mem/hugetlb/lib/" and also one in
".../testcases/kernel/syscalls/ipc/lib". The source is (not-so-astoundingly)
almost the same, with only a few extra macros with hugetlb's libipc and some
extra code (not much) in getipckey(..); I'm not quite sure why hugetlb uses
a time seeded random key lookup method whereas the source in ipc features
the almost same exact functionality, moduland and all. get_used_msgqueues
and get_max_msgqueues also exist only in ipc's libipc code.

Why isn't there just 1 libipc, with the non-commonalities stripped out of
the source, or at least modularized to the extent where only one library is
required?

Thanks,
