Описание (Description)

mq_open() creates a new POSIX message queue or opens an existing
       queue.  The queue is identified by name.  For details of the
       construction of name, see mq_overview(7).

The oflag argument specifies flags that control the operation of the call. (Definitions of the flags values can be obtained by including <fcntl.h>.) Exactly one of the following must be specified in oflag:

O_RDONLY Open the queue to receive messages only.

O_WRONLY Open the queue to send messages only.

O_RDWR Open the queue to both send and receive messages.

Zero or more of the following flags can additionally be ORed in oflag:

O_CLOEXEC (since Linux 2.6.26) Set the close-on-exec flag for the message queue descriptor. See open(2) for a discussion of why this flag is useful.

O_CREAT Create the message queue if it does not exist. The owner (user ID) of the message queue is set to the effective user ID of the calling process. The group ownership (group ID) is set to the effective group ID of the calling process.

O_EXCL If O_CREAT was specified in oflag, and a queue with the given name already exists, then fail with the error EEXIST.

O_NONBLOCK Open the queue in nonblocking mode. In circumstances where mq_receive(3) and mq_send(3) would normally block, these functions instead fail with the error EAGAIN.

If O_CREAT is specified in oflag, then two additional arguments must be supplied. The mode argument specifies the permissions to be placed on the new queue, as for open(2). (Symbolic definitions for the permissions bits can be obtained by including <sys/stat.h>.) The permissions settings are masked against the process umask.

The fields of the struct mq_attr pointed to attr specify the maximum number of messages and the maximum size of messages that the queue will allow. This structure is defined as follows:

struct mq_attr { long mq_flags; /* Flags (ignored for mq_open()) */ long mq_maxmsg; /* Max. # of messages on queue */ long mq_msgsize; /* Max. message size (bytes) */ long mq_curmsgs; /* # of messages currently in queue (ignored for mq_open()) */ };

Only the mq_maxmsg and mq_msgsize fields are employed when calling mq_open(); the values in the remaining fields are ignored.

If attr is NULL, then the queue is created with implementation- defined default attributes. Since Linux 3.5, two /proc files can be used to control these defaults; see mq_overview(7) for details.


Возвращаемое значение (Return value)

On success, mq_open() returns a message queue descriptor for use
       by other message queue functions.  On error, mq_open() returns
       (mqd_t) -1, with errno set to indicate the error.

Ошибки (Error)

EACCES The queue exists, but the caller does not have permission
              to open it in the specified mode.

EACCES name contained more than one slash.

EEXIST Both O_CREAT and O_EXCL were specified in oflag, but a queue with this name already exists.

EINVAL name doesn't follow the format in mq_overview(7).

EINVAL O_CREAT was specified in oflag, and attr was not NULL, but attr->mq_maxmsg or attr->mq_msqsize was invalid. Both of these fields must be greater than zero. In a process that is unprivileged (does not have the CAP_SYS_RESOURCE capability), attr->mq_maxmsg must be less than or equal to the msg_max limit, and attr->mq_msgsize must be less than or equal to the msgsize_max limit. In addition, even in a privileged process, attr->mq_maxmsg cannot exceed the HARD_MAX limit. (See mq_overview(7) for details of these limits.)

EMFILE The per-process limit on the number of open file and message queue descriptors has been reached (see the description of RLIMIT_NOFILE in getrlimit(2)).

ENAMETOOLONG name was too long.

ENFILE The system-wide limit on the total number of open files and message queues has been reached.

ENOENT The O_CREAT flag was not specified in oflag, and no queue with this name exists.

ENOENT name was just "/" followed by no other characters.

ENOMEM Insufficient memory.

ENOSPC Insufficient space for the creation of a new message queue. This probably occurred because the queues_max limit was encountered; see mq_overview(7).

Примечание (Note)

C library/kernel differences
       The mq_open() library function is implemented on top of a system
       call of the same name.  The library function performs the check
       that the name starts with a slash (/), giving the EINVAL error if
       it does not.  The kernel system call expects name to contain no
       preceding slash, so the C library function passes name without
       the preceding slash (i.e., name+1) to the system call.

Ошибки (баги) (Bugs)

In kernels before 2.6.14, the process umask was not applied to
       the permissions specified in mode.
