Hi,
I am working on syscall test:  shmat01.c
I have some confusion:

In setup() : it is  allocating shared memory by shmget() and then attaching by 
shmat() and after  that detaching the attached address (i.e. shmdt())

        if (shmdt((const void *)base_addr) == -1) {
                tst_brkm(TBROK, cleanup, "Couldn't detach shared memory");
        }

And again in main function it is using same "base_addr" as attaching address,

addr = shmat(*(TC[i].shmid), base_addr+TC[i].offset,
                                     TC[i].flags);
how can we ensure(100%) that base_addr (virtual) will be free till this point 
for attaching?.
there is possibility that this address(base_addr) will be used, so in that case 
this shmat() will fail.
Please correct me if I am wrong.
Thanks in advance.

Best Regards,
Om Prakash Pal
