msgsnap - message queue snapshot operation
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/msg.h>
msgsnap(int msqid, void *buf, size_t bufsz, long msgtyp);
DESCRIPTION
The msgsnap() function reads all of the messages of type msgtyp from the queue associated with the message queue identifier specified by
msqid and places them in the user-defined buffer pointed to by buf.
The buf argument points to a user-defined buffer that on return will contain first a buffer header structure:
struct msgsnap_head {
size_t msgsnap_size; /* bytes used/required in the buffer */
size_t msgsnap_nmsg; /* number of messages in the buffer */
};
followed by msgsnap_nmsg messages, each of which starts with a message header:
struct msgsnap_mhead {
size_t msgsnap_mlen; /* number of bytes in the message */
long msgsnap_mtype; /* message type */
};
and followed by msgsnap_mlen bytes containing the message contents.
Each subsequent message header is located at the first byte following the previous message contents, rounded up to a sizeof(size_t) bound-
ary.
The bufsz argument specifies the size of buf in bytes. If bufsz is less than sizeof(msgsnap_head), msgsnap() fails with EINVAL. If bufsz
is insufficient to contain all of the requested messages, msgsnap() succeeds but returns with msgsnap_nmsg set to 0 and with msgsnap_size
set to the required size of the buffer in bytes.
The msgtyp argument specifies the types of messages requested as follows:
o If msgtyp is 0, all of the messages on the queue are read.
o If msgtyp is greater than 0, all messages of type msgtyp are read.
o If msgtyp is less than 0, all messages with type less than or equal to the absolute value of msgtyp are read.
The msgsnap() function is a non-destructive operation. Upon completion, no changes are made to the data structures associated with msqid.
RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, msgsnap() returns 0. Otherwise, -1 is returned and errno is set to indicate the error.
ERRORS
The msgsnap() function will fail if:
EACCES Operation permission is denied to the calling process. See Intro(2).
EINVAL The msqid argument is not a valid message queue identifier or the value of bufsz is less than sizeof(struct msgsnap_head).
EFAULT The buf argument points to an illegal address.
USAGE
The msgsnap() function returns a snapshot of messages on a message queue at one point in time. The queue contents can change immediately
following return from msgsnap().
EXAMPLES
Example 1 msgsnap() example
This is sample C code indicating how to use the msgsnap function (see msgids(2)).
void
process_msgid(int msqid)
{
size_t bufsize;
struct msgsnap_head *buf;
struct msgsnap_mhead *mhead;
int i;
/* allocate a minimum-size buffer */
buf = malloc(bufsize = sizeof(struct msgsnap_head));
/* read all of the messages from the queue */
for (;;) {
if (msgsnap(msqid, buf, bufsize, 0) != 0) {
perror("msgsnap");
free(buf);
return;
}
if (bufsize >= buf->msgsnap_size) /* we got them all */
break;
/* we need a bigger buffer */
buf = realloc(buf, bufsize = buf->msgsnap_size);
}
/* process each message in the queue (there may be none) */
mhead = (struct msgsnap_mhead *)(buf + 1); /* first message */
for (i = 0; i < buf->msgsnap_nmsg; i++) {
size_t mlen = mhead->msgsnap_mlen;
/* process the message contents */
process_message(mhead->msgsnap_mtype, (char *)(mhead+1), mlen);
/* advance to the next message header */
mhead = (struct msgsnap_mhead *)
((char *)mhead + sizeof(struct msgsnap_mhead) +
((mlen + sizeof(size_t) - 1) & ~(sizeof(size_t) - 1)));
}
free(buf);
}
