The ODP_SHM_SINGLE_VA flag is created: when set (at odp_shm_reserve()),
this flag guarantees that all ODP threads sharing this memory
block will see the block at the same address (regadless of ODP
thread type -pthread vs process- or fork time)

The flag ODP_SHM_EXPORT is added: when passed at odp_shm_reserve() time
the memory block becomes visible to other ODP instances.
The function odp_shm_find_exported() is added: this function enables to
reserve block of memories exported by other ODP instances (using the
ODP_SHM_EXPORT flag).

I might lost some discussion. But for now it looks like we can
extend odp_shm_lookup() with that arguments. I.e. if odp_inst = 0,
local look up will be done.

don't agree, as this is not a lookup.  That was the confusion I was
trying to avoid by having it as a reserve_*) function...
This one allocates a new handles, and therefore needs a free().
In my eyes, the former name, reserve_exoprted() was better, but Petri nacked it.

Patch is otherwise OK, but I think export -> import is a better naming convention. I also updated the spec text to be a bit more specific about the feature, see under.

/**
 * Import a block of shared memory that was exported by another ODP instance
 *
 * This call creates a new handle for accessing a shared memory block created
 * (with ODP_SHM_EXPORT flag) by another ODP instance. An instance may have
 * only a single handle to the same block. Application must not access the
 * block after freeing the handle. When an imported handle is freed, only
 * the calling instance is affected. The exported block may be freed only
 * after all other instances have stopped accessing the block.
 *
 * @param remote_name  Name of the block, in the remote ODP instance
 * @param odp_inst     Remote ODP instance, as returned by odp_init_global()
 * @param local_name   Name given to the shm block, in the local ODP instance.
 *                     May be NULL, if the application doesn't need a name
 *                     (for a lookup).
 *
 * @return A handle to access a block exported by another ODP instance
 * @retval ODP_SHM_INVALID on failure
 */
odp_shm_t odp_shm_import(const char *remote_name, odp_instance_t odp_inst,
