.SH NAME
mqueue.h
\(em message queues
(\fBREALTIME\fP)
.SH SYNOPSIS
.LP
.nf
#include <mqueue.h>
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.IR <mqueue.h>
header shall define the
.BR mqd_t
type, which is used for message queue descriptors. This is not an
array type.
.P
The
.IR <mqueue.h>
header shall define the
.BR pthread_attr_t ,
.BR size_t ,
and
.BR ssize_t
types as described in
.IR <sys/types.h> .
.P
The
.IR <mqueue.h>
header shall define the
.BR "struct timespec"
structure as described in
.IR <time.h> .
.P
The tag
.BR sigevent
shall be declared as naming an incomplete structure type, the contents
of which are described in the
.IR <signal.h>
header.
.P
The
.IR <mqueue.h>
header shall define the
.BR mq_attr
structure, which is used in getting and setting the attributes of a
message queue. Attributes are initially set when the message queue is
created. An
.BR mq_attr
structure shall have at least the following fields:
.sp
.RS 4
.nf
long mq_flags \fRMessage queue flags.\fP
long mq_maxmsg \fRMaximum number of messages.\fP
long mq_msgsize \fRMaximum message size.\fP
long mq_curmsgs \fRNumber of messages currently queued.\fP
.fi
.P
.RE
.P
The following shall be declared as functions and may also be defined
as macros. Function prototypes shall be provided.
.sp
.RS 4
.nf
int mq_close(mqd_t);
int mq_getattr(mqd_t, struct mq_attr *);
int mq_notify(mqd_t, const struct sigevent *);
mqd_t mq_open(const char *, int, ...);
ssize_t mq_receive(mqd_t, char *, size_t, unsigned *);
int mq_send(mqd_t, const char *, size_t, unsigned);
int mq_setattr(mqd_t, const struct mq_attr *restrict,
struct mq_attr *restrict);
ssize_t mq_timedreceive(mqd_t, char *restrict, size_t,
unsigned *restrict, const struct timespec *restrict);
int mq_timedsend(mqd_t, const char *, size_t, unsigned,
const struct timespec *);
int mq_unlink(const char *);

Inclusion of the
.IR <mqueue.h>
header may make visible symbols defined in the headers
.IR <fcntl.h> ,
.IR <signal.h> ,
and
.IR <time.h> .
