     -m shmid
          Removes the shared memory identifier shmid from the

          associated with it are destroyed after the last detach.

     -M shmkey
          Removes the shared memory identifier, created with key
          shmkey, from the system.  The shared memory segment and
          data structure associated with it are destroyed after
          the last detach.

     -q msqid
          Removes the message queue identifier msqid from the
          system and destroys the message queue and data
          structure associated with it.

     -Q msgkey
          Removes the message queue identifier, created with key
          msgkey, from the system and destroys the message queue
          and data structure associated with it.

     -s semid
          Removes the semaphore identifier semid from the system
          and destroys the set of semaphores and data structure
          associated with it.

     -S semkey
          Removes the semaphore identifier, created with key
          semkey, from the system and destroys the set of
          semaphores and data structure associated with it.

DESCRIPTION
     ipcrm will remove one or more specified message, semaphore,
     or shared memory identifiers.  The identifiers are specified
     by the options.

     The details of the removes are described in msgctl(2),
     shmctl(2), and semctl(2).  The identifiers and keys may be
     found by using ipcs(1).
