NAME
msg.h, msg - message queue structures SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/msg.h> DESCRIPTION
The <sys/msg.h> header defines the following data types through typedef: msgqnum_t used for the number of messages in the message queue msglen_t used for the number of bytes allowed in the message queue These types are unsigned integer types that are able to store values at least as large as a type unsigned short. The <sys/msg.h> header defines the following constant as a message operation flag: MSG_NOERROR no error if big message The msqid_ds structure contains the following members: struct ipc_perm msg_perm Operation permission structure. msgqnum_t msg_qnum Number of messages currently on queue. msglen_t msg_qbytes Maximum number of bytes allowed on queue. pid_t msg_lspid Process ID of last msgsnd(2). pid_t msg_lrpid Process ID of last msgrcv(2). time_t msg_stime Time of last msgsnd(). time_t msg_rtime Time of last msgrcv(). time_t msg_ctime Time of last change. The pid_t, time_t, key_t, size_t, and ssize_t types are defined as described in <sys/types.h>. See types(3HEAD). ATTRIBUTES

NAME
sys/msg.h - XSI message queue structures SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/msg.h> DESCRIPTION
The <sys/msg.h> header shall define the following data types through typedef: msgqnum_t Used for the number of messages in the message queue. msglen_t Used for the number of bytes allowed in a message queue. These types shall be unsigned integer types that are able to store values at least as large as a type unsigned short. The <sys/msg.h> header shall define the following constant as a message operation flag: MSG_NOERROR No error if big message. The msqid_ds structure shall contain the following members: struct ipc_perm msg_perm Operation permission structure. msgqnum_t msg_qnum Number of messages currently on queue. msglen_t msg_qbytes Maximum number of bytes allowed on queue. pid_t msg_lspid Process ID of last msgsnd (). pid_t msg_lrpid Process ID of last msgrcv (). time_t msg_stime Time of last msgsnd (). time_t msg_rtime Time of last msgrcv (). time_t msg_ctime Time of last change. The pid_t, time_t, key_t, size_t, and ssize_t types shall be defined as described in <sys/types.h> . The following shall be declared as functions and may also be defined as macros. Function prototypes shall be provided. int msgctl(int, int, struct msqid_ds *); int msgget(key_t, int); ssize_t msgrcv(int, void *, size_t, long, int); int msgsnd(int, const void *, size_t, int); In addition, all of the symbols from <sys/ipc.h> shall be defined when this header is included. The following sections are informative. APPLICATION USAGE
