- *  receive the message.  The task selected to receive the
- *  message is based on the task queue discipline algorithm in
- *  use by this particular message queue.  If no tasks are waiting,
- *  then the message buffer will be placed at the REAR of the
- *  chain of pending messages for this message queue.

 /**
- * @brief RTEMS Message Queue Receive
- *
- * This routine implements the rtems_message_queue_receive directive.
- * This directive is invoked when the calling task wishes to receive
- * a message from the message queue indicated by ID. The received
- * message is to be placed in buffer. If no messages are outstanding
- * and the option_set indicates that the task is willing to block,
- * then the task will be blocked until a message arrives or until,
- * optionally, timeout clock ticks have passed.

- * @param[in] id is the queue id
- * @param[in] buffer is the pointer to message buffer
- * @param[in] size is the size of message receive
- * @param[in] option_set is the options on receive
- * @param[in] timeout is the number of ticks to wait
- *
- * @retval This method returns RTEMS_SUCCESSFUL if there was not an
- *         error. Otherwise, a status code is returned indicating the

+ * @param[out] size The size of the message.
+ * @param option_set The option set, e.g. RTEMS_NO_WAIT or RTEMS_WAIT.
+ * @param timeout The number of ticks to wait if the RTEMS_WAIT is set.  Use
+ *   RTEMS_NO_TIMEOUT to wait indefinitely.

+ * @retval RTEMS_INVALID_ADDRESS The message buffer pointer or the message size
