/*
 * shmem_alloc allocates a region of shared memory of the given size, using
 * the given name to avoid conflicts between multiple regions within the
 * program. The region will not be automatically grown if its boundaries
 * are over-run, use shmem_realloc for that.
 *
 * If expose is non-zero and the underlying system supports it, the
 * file used to create the shared region will be visible to other processes
 * running on the system.
 *
 * name should be unique to the program which calls this routine, otherwise
 * conflicts will arise.
 *
 * Returns a new shared memory region, with the data element being a
 * pointer to the shared memory. This function must be called before any
 * daemon workers are spawned, in order for the handle to the shared region
 * to be inherited by the children.
 *
 * Because of the requirement that the region must be inherited by the
 * children, the region cannot be re-allocated with a larger size when
 * necessary.
