[0c8ebac]40 <para os="c">The <filename class="directory">/dev/shm</filename> mount point
41 for <systemitem class="filesystem">tmpfs</systemitem> is included to
42 allow enabling POSIX-shared memory. The kernel must have the required
43 support built into it for this to work (more about this is in the next
44 section). Please note that very little software currently uses
45 POSIX-shared memory. Therefore, consider the <filename
46 class="directory">/dev/shm</filename> mount point optional. For more
47 information, see <filename>Documentation/filesystems/tmpfs.txt</filename>
48 in the kernel source tree.</para>
