[ts-7000] /dev/mem and /dev/shm

["Yan Seiner" <>]

Could someone please point me at some docs that explain the difference
between /dev/mem and /dev/shm?

It seems like both do essentially the same thing....

I'm tyring to figure out the best way to use the battery-backed sram
on these boards;  I need a way to a) share data between running
applications, and b) keep that data secure during powerfails and
shutdowns.

Both /dev/shm and /dev/mem seem similar; one is POSIX and the other is
not....  So what's the deal?
