операция отправки сообщения XSI (XSI message send operation)

Пролог (Prolog)

This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The
       Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult the
       corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior),
       or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.

Имя (Name)

msgsnd — XSI message send operation

Синопсис (Synopsis)

#include <sys/msg.h>

int msgsnd(int msqid, const void *msgp, size_t msgsz, int msgflg);


Описание (Description)

The msgsnd() function operates on XSI message queues (see the
       Base Definitions volume of POSIX.1‐2017, Section 3.226, Message
       Queue).  It is unspecified whether this function interoperates
       with the realtime interprocess communication facilities defined
       in Section 2.8, Realtime.

The msgsnd() function shall send a message to the queue associated with the message queue identifier specified by msqid.

The application shall ensure that the argument msgp points to a user-defined buffer that contains first a field of type long specifying the type of the message, and then a data portion that holds the data bytes of the message. The structure below is an example of what this user-defined buffer might look like:

struct mymsg { long mtype; /* Message type. */ char mtext[1]; /* Message text. */ }

The structure member mtype is a non-zero positive type long that can be used by the receiving process for message selection.

The structure member mtext is any text of length msgsz bytes. The argument msgsz can range from 0 to a system-imposed maximum.

The argument msgflg specifies the action to be taken if one or more of the following is true:

* The number of bytes already on the queue is equal to msg_qbytes; see <sys/msg.h>.

* The total number of messages on all queues system-wide is equal to the system-imposed limit.

These actions are as follows:

* If (msgflg & IPC_NOWAIT) is non-zero, the message shall not be sent and the calling thread shall return immediately.

* If (msgflg & IPC_NOWAIT) is 0, the calling thread shall suspend execution until one of the following occurs:

-- The condition responsible for the suspension no longer exists, in which case the message is sent.

-- The message queue identifier msqid is removed from the system; when this occurs, errno shall be set to [EIDRM] and -1 shall be returned.

-- The calling thread receives a signal that is to be caught; in this case the message is not sent and the calling thread resumes execution in the manner prescribed in sigaction(3p).

Upon successful completion, the following actions are taken with respect to the data structure associated with msqid; see <sys/msg.h>:

* msg_qnum shall be incremented by 1.

* msg_lspid shall be set to the process ID of the calling process.

* msg_stime shall be set to the current time, as described in Section 2.7.1, IPC General Description.


Возвращаемое значение (Return value)

Upon successful completion, msgsnd() shall return 0; otherwise,
       no message shall be sent, msgsnd() shall return -1, and errno
       shall be set to indicate the error.

Ошибки (Error)

The msgsnd() function shall fail if:

EACCES Operation permission is denied to the calling process; see Section 2.7, XSI Interprocess Communication.

EAGAIN The message cannot be sent for one of the reasons cited above and (msgflg & IPC_NOWAIT) is non-zero.

EIDRM The message queue identifier msqid is removed from the system.

EINTR The msgsnd() function was interrupted by a signal.

EINVAL The value of msqid is not a valid message queue identifier, or the value of mtype is less than 1; or the value of msgsz is greater than the system-imposed limit.

The following sections are informative.


Примеры (Examples)

Sending a Message
       The following example sends a message to the queue identified by
       the msqid argument (assuming that value has previously been set).
       This call specifies that an error should be reported if no
       message is available.  The message size is calculated directly
       using the sizeof operator.

#include <sys/msg.h> ... int result; int msqid; struct message { long type; char text[20]; } msg;

msg.type = 1; strcpy(msg.text, "This is message 1"); ... result = msgsnd(msqid, (void *) &msg, sizeof(msg.text), IPC_NOWAIT);


Использование в приложениях (Application usage)

The POSIX Realtime Extension defines alternative interfaces for
       interprocess communication (IPC). Application developers who need
       to use IPC should design their applications so that modules using
       the IPC routines described in Section 2.7, XSI Interprocess
       Communication can be easily modified to use the alternative
       interfaces.
