- 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 SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In sys/msg.h
|
|
.Ft ssize_t
|
|
.Fn msgrcv "int msqid" "void *msgp" "size_t msgsz" "long msgtyp" "int msgflg"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn msgrcv
|
|
function receives a message from the message queue specified in
|
|
.Fa msqid ,
|
|
and places it into the user-defined structure pointed to by
|
|
.Fa msgp .
|
|
This structure must contain a first field of type
|
|
.Sy 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
|
|
struct mymsg {
|
|
long mtype; /* message type */
|
|
char mtext[1]; /* body of message */
|
|
};
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Va mtype
|
|
is an integer greater than 0 that can be used to select messages.
|
|
.Va mtext
|
|
is an array of bytes, with size up to the system limit
|
|
.Dv MSGMAX .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
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
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The argument
|
|
.Fa msgsz
|
|
specifies the size in bytes of
|
|
.Va mtext .
|
|
If the received message has a length greater than
|
|
.Fa msgsz
|
|
it will be silently truncated if the
|
|
.Dv MSG_NOERROR
|
|
flag is set in
|
|
.Fa msgflg ,
|
|
otherwise an error will be returned.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If no matching message is present on the message queue specified by
|
|
.Fa msqid ,
|
|
the behaviour of
|
|
.Fn msgrcv
|
|
depends on whether the
|
|
.Dv IPC_NOWAIT
|
|
flag is set in
|
|
.Fa msgflg
|
|
or not.
|
|
If
|
|
.Dv IPC_NOWAIT
|
|
is set, then
|
|
.Fn msgrcv
|
|
will immediately return a value of \-1 and set
|
|
.Va errno
|
|
to
|
|
.Er EAGAIN .
|
|
If
|
|
.Dv IPC_NOWAIT
|
|
is not set, the calling process will block 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
|
|
.Er EIDRM .
|
|
.It
|
|
A signal is received and caught.
|
|
\-1 is returned and
|
|
.Va errno
|
|
is set to
|
|
.Er EINTR .
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If a message is successfully received, the data structure associated with
|
|
.Fa msqid
|
|
is updated as follows:
|
|
.Bl -bullet
|
|
.It
|
|
.Va msg_lrpid
|
|
is set to the pid of the caller.
|
|
.It
|
|
.Va msg_lrtime
|
|
is set to the current time.
|
|
.It
|
|
.Va msg_qnum
|
|
is decremented by 1.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
Upon successful completion,
|
|
.Fn msgrcv
|
|
returns the number of bytes received and placed into the
|
|
.Va mtext
|
|
field of the structure pointed to by
|
|
.Fa msgp .
|
|
Otherwise, \-1 is returned, and
|
|
.Va errno
|
|
set to indicate the error.
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
.Fn msgrcv
|
|
will fail if:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er
|
|
.It Bq Er E2BIG
|

A matching message was received, but its size was greater than
|
|
.Fa msgsz
