.Nm msgctl
|
||||
.Nd message control operations
|
||||
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
||||
.Fd #include <sys/types.h>
|
||||
.Fd #include <sys/ipc.h>
|
||||
.Fd #include <sys/msg.h>
|
||||
.Ft int
|
||||
.Fn msgctl "int msqid" "int cmd" "struct msqid_ds *buf"
|
||||
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
||||
The
|
||||
.Fn msgctl
|
||||
system call performs some control operations on the message queue specified
|
||||
by
|
||||
.Fa msqid .
|
||||
|
||||
Each message queue has a data structure associated with it, parts of which
|
||||
may be altered by
|
||||
.Fn msgctl
|
||||
and parts of which determine the actions of
|
||||
.Fn msgctl .
|
||||
The data structure is defined in
|
||||
.Aq Pa sys/msg.h
|
||||
and contains (amongst others) the following members:
|
||||
.Bd -literal
|
||||
struct msqid_ds {
|
||||
struct ipc_perm msg_perm; /* msg queue permission bits */
|
||||
u_long msg_cbytes; /* # of bytes in use on the queue */
|
||||
u_long msg_qnum; /* # of msgs in the queue */
|
||||
u_long msg_qbytes; /* max # of bytes on the queue */
|
||||
pid_t msg_lspid; /* pid of last msgsnd() */
|
||||
pid_t msg_lrpid; /* pid 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 msgctl() */
|
||||
};
|
||||
.Ed
|
||||
|
||||
The
|
||||
.Bf -literal
|
||||
ipc_perm
|
||||
.Ef
|
||||
structure used inside the
|
||||
.Bf -literal
|
||||
shmid_ds
|
||||
.Ef
|
||||
structure is defined in
|
||||
.Aq Pa sys/ipc.h
|
||||
and looks like this:
|
||||
.Bd -literal
|
||||
struct ipc_perm {
|
||||
ushort cuid; /* creator user id */
|
||||
ushort cgid; /* creator group id */
|
||||
ushort uid; /* user id */
|
||||
ushort gid; /* group id */
|
||||
ushort mode; /* permission (9 bits, see chmod(2)) */
|
||||
ushort seq; /* sequence # (to generate unique id) */
|
||||
key_t key; /* user specified msg/sem/shm key */
|
||||
};
|
||||
.Ed
|
||||
|
||||
The operation to be performed by
|
||||
.Fn msgctl
|
||||
is specified in
|
||||
.Fa cmd
|
||||
and is one of:
|
||||
.Bl -tag -width IPC_RMIDX
|
||||
.It Dv IPC_STAT
|
||||
Gather information about the message queue and place it in the
|
||||
structure pointed to by
|
||||
.Fa buf .
|
||||
.It Dv IPC_SET
|
||||
Set the value of the
|
||||
.Va msg_perm.uid ,
|
||||
.Va msg_perm.gid ,
|
||||
.Va msg_perm.mode
|
||||
and
|
||||
.Va msg_qbytes
|
||||
fields in the structure associated with
|
||||
.Fa msqid .
|
||||
The values are taken from the corresponding fields in the structure
|
||||
pointed to by
|
||||
.Fa buf .
|
||||
This operation can only be executed by the super-user, or a process that
|
||||
has an effective user id equal to either
|
||||
.Va msg_perm.cuid
|
||||
or
|
||||
.Va msg_perm.uid
|
||||
in the data structure associated with the message queue.
|
||||
The value of
|
||||
.Va msg_qbytes
|
||||
can only be increased by the super-user. Values for
|
||||
.Va msg_qbytes
|
||||
that exceed the system limit (MSGMNB from
|
||||
.Aq Pa sys/msg.h )
|
||||
are silently truncated to that limit.
|
||||
|
||||
.It Dv IPC_RMID
|
||||
Remove the message queue specified by
|
||||
.Fa msqid
|
||||
and destroy the data associated with it. Only the super-user or a process
|
||||
with an effective uid equal to the
|
||||
.Va msg_perm.cuid
|
||||
or
|
||||
.Va msg_perm.uid
|
||||
values in the data structure associated with the queue can do this.
|
||||
.El
|
||||
|
||||
The permission to read from or write to a message queue (see
|
||||
.Xr msgsnd 3
|
||||
and
|
||||
.Xr msgrcv 3 )
|
||||
is determined by the
|
||||
.Va msg_perm.mode
|
||||
field in the same way as is
|
||||
done with files (see
|
||||
.Xr chmod 2 ),
|
||||
but the effective uid can match either the
|
||||
.Va msg_perm.cuid
|
||||
field or the
|
||||
.Va msg_perm.uid
|
||||
field, and the
|
||||
effective gid can match either
|
||||
.Va msg_perm.cgid
|
||||
or
|
||||
.Va msg_perm.gid .
|
||||
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
||||
Upon successful completion, a value of 0 is returned. Otherwise, -1 is
|
||||
returned and the global variable
|
||||
.Va errno
|
||||
is set to indicate the error.
|
||||

|
||||
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
||||
The
|
||||
.Fn msgrcv
|
||||
function receives a message from the message queue specified in
|
||||
.Fa msqid ,
|
||||
and places it into the structure pointed to by
|
||||
.Fa msgp .
|
||||
This structure should consist of the following members:
|
||||
.Bd -literal
|
||||
long mtype; /* message type */
|
||||
char mtext[1]; /* body of message */
|
||||
.Ed
|
||||
|
||||
.Va mtype
|
||||
is an integer greater than 0 that can be used for selecting messages,
|
||||
.Va mtext
|
||||
is an array of bytes, with a size up to that of the system limit (MSGMAX).
|
||||
|
||||
The value of
|
||||
.Fa msgtyp
|
||||
has one of the following meanings:
|
||||
.Bl -bullet
|
||||
.It
|
||||
.Fa msgtyp
|
||||
is greater than 0. The first message of type
|
||||
.Fa msgtyp
|
||||
will be received.
|
||||
.It
|
||||
.Fa msgtyp
|
||||
is equal to 0. The first message on the queue will be received.
|
||||
.It
|
||||
.Fa msgtyp
|
||||
is less than 0. The first message of the lowest message type that is
|
||||
less than or equal to the absolute value of
|
||||
.Fa msgtyp
|
||||
will be received.
|
||||
.El
|
||||
|
||||
.Fa msgsz
|
||||
specifies the maximum length of the requested message. If the received
|
||||
message has a length greater than
|
||||
.Fa msgsz
|
||||
it will be silently truncated if the MSG_NOERROR flag is set in
|
||||
.Fa msgflg ,
|
||||
otherwise an error will be returned.
|
||||
|
||||
If no matching message is present on the message queue specified by
|
||||
.Fa msqid ,
|
||||
the behavior of
|
||||
.Fn msgrcv
|
||||
depends on whether the IPC_NOWAIT flag is set in
|
||||
.Fa msgflg
|
||||
or not. If IPC_NOWAIT is set,
|
||||
.Fn msgrcv
|
||||
will immediately return a value of -1, and set
|
||||
.Va errno
|
||||
to EAGAIN. If IPC_NOWAIT is not set, the calling process will be blocked
|
||||
until:
|
||||
.Bl -bullet
|
||||
.It
|
||||
A message of the requested type becomes available on the message queue.
|
||||
.It
|
||||
The message queue is removed, in which case -1 will be returned, and
|
||||
.Va errno
|
||||
set to EINVAL.
|
||||
.It
|
||||

the case of a removed message queue, nor the ENOMSG value, which
|

should be used when no suitable message is available and IPC_NOWAIT
|

.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
||||
.Fd #include <sys/types.h>
|
||||
.Fd #include <sys/ipc.h>

||||
.Fd #include <sys/msg.h>
|

|
||||
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
||||
The
|
||||
.Fn msgsnd
|
||||
function sends a message from the message queue specified in
|
||||
.Fa msqid .
|
||||
.Fa msgp
|
||||
points to a structure containing the message. This structure should
|
||||
consist of the following members:
|
||||
.Bd -literal
|
||||
long mtype; /* message type */
|
||||
char mtext[1]; /* body of message */
|
||||
.Ed
|
||||
|
||||
.Va mtype
|
||||
is an integer greater than 0 that can be used for selecting messages (see
|
||||
.Xr msgrcv 3 ) ,
|
||||
.Va mtext
|
||||
is an array of bytes, with a size up to that of the system limit (MSGMAX).
|
||||
|
||||
If the number of bytes already on the message queue plus
|
||||
.Fa msgsz
|
||||
is bigger than the maximum number of bytes on the message queue (
|
||||
.Va msg_qbytes ,
|
||||
see
|
||||
.Xr msgctl 3 ) ,
|
||||
or 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 IPC_NOWAIT mask set in it, the call will return immediately. If
|
||||
.Fa msgflg
|
||||
does not have IPC_NOWAIT set in it, the call will block until:
|
||||
.Bl -bullet
|
||||
.It
|
||||
The condition which caused the call to block does no longer exist.
|
||||
The message will be sent.
|
||||
.It
|
||||
The message queue is removed, in which case -1 will be returned, and
|
||||
.Va errno
|
||||
is set to EINVAL.
|
||||
.It
|
||||
The caller catches a signal. The call returns with
|
||||
.Va errno
|
||||
set to EINTR.
|
||||
.El
|
||||
|
||||
After a successful call, the data structure associated with the message
|
||||
queue is updated in the following way:
|
||||
.Bl -bullet
|
||||
.It
|
||||
.Va msg_cbytes
|
||||
is incremented by the size of the message.
|
||||
.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 EINVAL
|
||||
.Fa msqid
|
||||
is not a valid message queue identifier
|
||||
|
||||
The message queue was removed while
|
||||
.Fn msgsnd
|
||||
was waiting for a resource to become available in order to deliver the
|
||||
message.
|
||||
|
||||
.Fa msgsz
|
||||
is less than 0, or greater than
|
||||
.Va msg_qbytes .
|
||||
.It Bq Er EACCESS
|
||||
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 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.
|
||||
.El
|
||||
.Sh BUGS
|
||||
NetBSD and FreeBSD do not define the EIDRM error value, which should be used
|
||||
in the case of a removed message queue.
