ipc_perm Token

The ipc_perm token contains a copy of the System V IPC access information. This token is added to audit records generated by shared memory, semaphore, and message IPC events. The token has eight fields: a token ID that identifies this token as an ipc_perm token, the user ID of the IPC owner, the group ID of the IPC owner, the user ID of the IPC creator, the group ID of the IPC creator, the access modes of the IPC, the sequence number of the IPC, and the IPC key value. The values are taken from the ipc_perm structure associated with the IPC object. Figure A-15 shows an ipc_perm token format.
