- Fix for possible unset uid/gid in toproto
- Fix for default mtree style
- Update libelf
- Importing libexecinfo
- Resynchronize GCC, mpc, gmp, mpfr
- build.sh: Replace params with show-params.
This has been done as the make target has been renamed in the same
way, while a new target named params has been added. This new
target generates a file containing all the parameters, instead of
printing it on the console.
- Update test48 with new etc/services (Fix by Ben Gras <ben@minix3.org)
get getservbyport() out of the inner loop

.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm msgsnd
|
|
.Nd send a message to a message queue
|
|
.Sh LIBRARY
|
|
.Lb libc
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In sys/msg.h
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn msgsnd "int msqid" "const void *msgp" "size_t msgsz" "int msgflg"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn msgsnd
|
|
function sends a message from the message queue specified in
|
|
.Fa msqid .
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa msgp
|
|
argument is a pointer to a user-defined structure containing the message.
|
|
This structure must contain a first field of type
|
|
.Vt long
|
|
that will indicate the user-defined type of the message.
|
|
The remaining fields will contain the contents of the message.
|
|
The following is an example of what this user-defined
|
|
structure might look like:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
struct mymsg {
|
|
long mtype; /* message type */
|
|
char mtext[1]; /* body of message */
|
|
};
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Va mtype
|
|
field is an integer greater than 0 that can
|
|
be used for selecting messages (see
|
|
.Xr msgrcv 2 ) .
|
|
The
|
|
.Va mtext
|
|
field is an array of bytes of length
|
|
.Fa msgsz ,
|
|
with size up to the system limit
|
|
.Dv MSGMAX .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If the number of bytes already on the message queue plus
|
|
.Fa msgsz
|
|
is greater than the maximum number of bytes in the message queue
|
|
.Pf ( Va msg_qbytes ,
|
|
see
|
|
.Xr msgctl 2 ) ,
|
|
or if the number of messages on all queues system-wide is already equal to
|
|
the system limit,
|
|
.Fa msgflg
|
|
determines the action of
|
|
.Fn msgsnd .
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa msgflg
|
|
has
|
|
.Dv IPC_NOWAIT
|
|
mask set in it, the call will return immediately.
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa msgflg
|
|
does not have
|
|
.Dv IPC_NOWAIT
|
|
set in it, the call will block until:
|
|
.Bl -bullet -offset indent
|
|
.It
|
|
The condition which caused the call to block no longer exists.
|
|
The message was sent.
|
|
.It
|
|
The message queue is removed, in which case \-1 will be returned and
|
|
.Va errno
|
|
set to
|
|
.Er EINVAL .
|
|
.It
|
|
The caller catches a signal.
|
|
The call returns with
|
|
.Va errno
|
|
set to
|
|
.Er EINTR .
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
After a successful call, the data structure associated with the message
|
|
queue is updated in the following way:
|
|
.Bl -bullet -offset indent
|
|
.It
|
|
.Va msg_qnum
|
|
is incremented by 1.
|
|
.It
|
|
.Va msg_lspid
|
|
is set to the pid of the calling process.
|
|
.It
|
|
.Va msg_stime
|
|
is set to the current time.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
Upon successful completion, 0 is returned.
|
|
Otherwise, \-1 is returned and
|
|
.Va errno
|
|
is set to indicate the error.
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
.Fn msgsnd
|
|
will fail if:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er
|
|
.It Bq Er EACCES
|
|
The calling process does not have write access to the message queue.
|
|
.It Bq Er EAGAIN
|
|
There was no space for this message either on the queue or in the whole
|
|
system, and
|
|
.Dv IPC_NOWAIT
|
|
was set in
|
|
.Fa msgflg .
|
|
.It Bq Er EFAULT
|
|
.Fa msgp
|
|
points to an invalid address.
|
|
.It Bq Er EINTR
|
|
The system call was interrupted by the delivery of a signal.
|
|
.It Bq Er EINVAL
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa msqid
|
|
argument is not a valid message queue identifier,
|
|
or the value of
|
|
.Fa mtype
|
|
is less than 1.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The message queue was removed while
|
|
.Fn msgsnd
|
|
was waiting for a resource to become available in order to deliver the
|
|
message.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa msgsz
|
|
argument is greater than
|
|
.Va msg_qbytes
|
|
or
|
|
.Dv SSIZE_MAX .
