 @section Background
 
 @subsection Theory
 
-Message queues are named objects that operate with readers and writers.  In addition, a message queue is a priority queue of discrete messages.  POSIX message queues offer a certain, basic amount of application access to, and control over, the message queue geometry that can be changed.

 @subsection Messages
 
-A message is a variable length buffer where information can be stored to support communication.  The length of the message and the information stored in that message are user-defined and can be actual data, pointer(s), or empty.  There is a maximum acceptable length for a message that is associated with each message queue.

+that is associated with each message queue.
 
 @subsection Message Queues
 
-Message queues are named objects similar to the pipes of POSIX.  They are a means of communicating data between multiple processes and for passing messages among tasks and ISRs.  Message queues can contain a variable number of messages from 0 to an upper limit that is user defined.  The maximum length of the message can be set on a per message queue basis.  Normally messages are sent and received from the message queue in FIFO order.  However, messages can also be prioritized and a priority queue established for the passing of messages.  Synchronization is needed when a task waits for a message to arrive at a queue.  Also, a task may poll a queue for the arrival of a message.
-The message queue descriptor mqd_t mq represents the message queue.  It is passed as an argument to all of the message queue functions.

-All of these attributes are set when the message queue is created using mq_open.  The mq_flags field is not used in the creation of a message queue, it is only used by mq_setattr and mq_getattr.  The structure mq_attr is passed as an argument to mq_setattr and mq_getattr.
-The mq_flags contain information affecting the behavior of the message queue.  The O_NONBLOCK mq_flag is the only flag that is defined.  In mq_setattr, the mq_flag can be set to dynamically change the blocking and non-blocking behavior of the message queue.  If the non-block flag is set then the message queue is non-blocking, and requests to send and receive messages do not block waiting for resources.  For a blocking message queue, a request to send might have to wait for an empty message queue, and a request to receive might have to wait for a message to arrive on the queue. Both mq_maxmsg and mq_msgsize affect the sizing of the message queue.  mq_maxmsg specifies how many messages the queue can hold at any one time.  mq_msgsize specifies the size of any one message on the queue.  If either of these limits is exceeded, an error message results.
-Upon return from mq_getattr, the mq_curmsgs is set according to the current state of the message queue.  This specifies the number of messages currently on the queue.

 @subsection Notification of a Message on the Queue
 
-Every message queue has the ability to notify one (and only one) process whenever the queue's state changes from empty (0 messages) to nonempty.  This means that the process does not have to block or constantly poll while it waits for a message.  By calling mq_notify, you can attach a notification request to a message queue.  When a message is received by an empty queue, if there are no processes blocked and waiting for the message, then the queue notifies the requesting process of a message arrival.  There is only one signal sent by the message queue, after that the notification request is de-registered and another process can attach its notification request.  After receipt of a notification, a process must re-register if it wishes to be notified again.
-If there is a process blocked and waiting for the message, that process gets the message, and notification is not sent.  It is also possible for another process to receive the message after the notification is sent but before the notified process has sent its receive request.
-Only one process can have a notification request attached to a message queue at any one time.  If another process attempts to register a notification request, it fails.  You can de-register for a message queue by passing a NULL to mq_notify, this removes any notification request attached to the queue.  Whenever the message queue is closed, all notification attachments are removed.

 @section Operations
 
 @subsection Opening or Creating a Message Queue
 
-If the message queue already exists, mq_open() opens it, if the message queue does not exist, mq_open() creates it.  When a message queue is created, the geometry of the message queue is contained in the attribute structure that is passed in as an argument.  This includes mq_msgsize that dictates the maximum size of a single message, and the mq_maxmsg that dictates the maximum number of messages the queue can hold at one time.  The blocking or non-blocking behavior of the queue can also specified.

 @subsection Closing a Message Queue
 
-The mq_close() function is used to close the connection made to a message queue that was made during mq_open.  The message queue itself and the messages on the queue are persistent and remain after the queue is closed.

+queue that was made during mq_open.  The message queue itself and the
+messages on the queue are persistent and remain after the queue is closed.
 
 @subsection Removing a Message Queue
 
-The mq_unlink() function removes the named message queue.  If the message queue is not open when mq_unlink is called, then the queue is immediately eliminated.  Any messages that were on the queue are lost, and the queue can not be opened again.  If processes have the queue open when mq_unlink is called, the removal of the queue is delayed until the last process using the queue has finished.  However, the name of the message queue is removed so that no other process can open it.

+using the queue has finished.  However, the name of the message queue is
+removed so that no other process can open it.
 
 @subsection Sending a Message to a Message Queue
 
-The mq_send() function adds the message in priority order to the message queue.  Each message has an assigned a priority.  The highest priority message is be at the front of the queue.
-The maximum number of messages that a message queue may accept is specified at creation by the mq_maxmsg field of the attribute structure.  If this amount is exceeded, the behavior of the process is determined according to what oflag was used when the message queue was opened.  If the queue was opened with O_NONBLOCK flag set, the process does not block, and an error is returned.  If the O_NONBLOCK flag was not set, the process does block and wait for space on the queue.

+and an error is returned.  If the O_NONBLOCK flag was not set, the process
+does block and wait for space on the queue.
 
 @subsection Receiving a Message from a Message Queue
 
-The mq_receive() function is used to receive the oldest of the highest priority message(s) from the message queue specified by mqdes.  The messages are received in FIFO order within the priorities.  The received message's priority is stored in the location referenced by the msg_prio.  If the msg_prio is a NULL, the priority is discarded.  The message is removed and stored in an area pointed to by msg_ptr whose length is of msg_len.  The msg_len must be at least equal to the mq_msgsize attribute of the message queue.
-The blocking behavior of the message queue is set by O_NONBLOCK at mq_open or by setting O_NONBLOCK in mq_flags in a call to mq_setattr.  If this is a blocking queue, the process does block and wait on an empty queue.  If this a non-blocking queue, the process does not block.
-Upon successful completion, mq_receive returns the length of the selected message in bytes and the message is removed from the queue.

+
+The blocking behavior of the message queue is set by O_NONBLOCK at mq_open
+or by setting O_NONBLOCK in mq_flags in a call to mq_setattr.  If this is
+a blocking queue, the process does block and wait on an empty queue.  If
+this a non-blocking queue, the process does not block. Upon successful
+completion, mq_receive returns the length of the selected message in bytes
+and the message is removed from the queue.
 
 @subsection Notification of Receipt of a Message on an Empty Queue
 
-The mq_notify() function registers the calling process to be notified of message arrival at an empty message queue.  Every message queue has the ability to notify one (and only one) process whenever the queue's state changes from empty (0 messages) to nonempty.  This means that the process does not have to block or constantly poll while it waits for a message.  By calling mq_notify, a notification request is attached to a message queue.  When a message is received by an empty queue, if there are no processes blocked and waiting for the message, then the queue notifies the requesting process of a message arrival.  There is only one signal sent by the message queue, after that the notification request is de-registered and another process can attach its notification request.  After receipt of a notification, a process must re-register if it wishes to be notified again.
-If there is a process blocked and waiting for the message, that process gets the message, and notification is not sent.  Only one process can have a notification request attached to a message queue at any one time.  If another process attempts to register a notification request, it fails.

+message queue is closed, all notification attachments are removed.
 
 @subsection Setting the Attributes of a Message Queue
 
-The mq_setattr() function is used to set attributes associated with the open message queue description referenced by the message queue descriptor specified by mqdes.  The *omqstat represents the old or previous attributes.  If omqstat is non-NULL, the function mq_setattr() stores, in the location referenced by omqstat, the previous message queue attributes and the current queue status.  These values are the same as would be returned by a call to mq_getattr() at that point.
-There is only one mq_attr.mq_flag that can be altered by this call.  This is the flag that deals with the blocking and non-blocking behavior of the message queue.  If the flag is set then the message queue is non-blocking, and requests to send or receive do not block while waiting for resources.  If the flag is not set, then message send and receive may involve waiting for an empty queue or waiting for a message to arrive.

 @subsection Getting the Attributes of a Message Queue
 
-The mq_getattr() function is used to get status information and attributes of the message queue associated with the message queue descriptor.  The results are returned in the mq_attr structure referenced by the mqstat argument.  All of these attributes are set at create time, except the blocking/non-blocking behavior of the message queue which can be dynamically set by using mq_setattr.  The attribute mq_curmsg is set to reflect the number of messages on the queue at the time that mq_getattr was called.

 @subheading DESCRIPTION:
 
-The mq_open () function establishes the connection between a process and a message queue with a message queue descriptor.  If the message queue already exists, mq_open opens it, if the message queue does not exist, mq_open creates it.  Message queues can have multiple senders and receivers.  If mq_open is successful, the function returns a message queue descriptor.  Otherwise, the function returns a -1 and sets 'errno' to indicate the error.
-
-The name of the message queue is used as an argument.  For the best of portability, the name of the message queue should begin with a "/" and no other "/" should be in the name.  Different systems interpret the name in different ways.
-
-The oflags contain information on how the message is opened if the queue already exists.  This may be O_RDONLY for read only, O_WRONLY for write only, of O_RDWR, for read and write.
-
-In addition, the oflags contain information needed in the creation of a message queue.
-@code{O_NONBLOCK} - If the non-block flag is set then the message queue is non-blocking, and requests to send and receive messages do not block waiting for resources.  If the flag is not set then the message queue is blocking, and a request to send might have to wait for an empty message queue.  Similarly, a request to receive might have to wait for a message to arrive on the queue.
-@code{O_CREAT} - This call specifies that the call the mq_open is to create a new message queue.  In this case the mode and attribute arguments of the function call are utilized.  The message queue is created with a mode similar to the creation of a file, read and write permission creator, group, and others.
-
-The geometry of the message queue is contained in the attribute structure.  This includes mq_msgsize that dictates the maximum size of a single message, and the mq_maxmsg that dictates the maximum number of messages the queue can hold at one time.  If a NULL is used in the mq_attr argument, then the message queue is created with implementation defined defaults.
-@code{O_EXCL} - is always set if O_CREAT flag is set.  If the message queue already exists, O_EXCL causes an error message to be returned, otherwise, the new message queue fails and appends to the existing one.

-If the argument notification is not NULL, this function registers the calling process to be notified of message arrival at an empty message queue associated with the specified message queue descriptor, mqdes.
-Every message queue has the ability to notify one (and only one) process whenever the queue's state changes from empty (0 messages) to nonempty.  This means that the process does not have to block or constantly poll while it waits for a message.  By calling mq_notify, a notification request is attached to a message queue.

There is only one signal sent by the message queue, after that the notification request is de-registered and another process can attach its notification request.  After receipt of a notification, a process must re-register if it wishes to be notified again.
-If there is a process blocked and waiting for the message, that process gets the message, and notification is not be sent.  Only one process can have a notification request attached to a message queue at any one time.  If another process attempts to register a notification request, it fails.  You can de-register for a message queue by passing a NULL to mq_notify; this removes any notification request attached to the queue.
