Bug description: shm_put_var problem and new shm functions
Apologies for posting this here, but I don't know where else to go.
shm_put_var has a problem in that when you try to write a variable which
already exists, the function will fail if there is not enough free space
for the variable and its old value. I have a patch which will simply
overwrite the old value if the lengths are the same, and will do more
intelligent space checking if they are not. I will submit this when I get
back to the office.
I also have developed a set of additional shm functions which implement an
LRU cache. These functions are handy for eg caching serialized objects
which would otherwise have to be fetched from a database. And of course
they are shared across the system.
My question is: how do I submit these new functions for inclusion in the
source?
