Message-ID: <20001029200818.A6164@mediaone.net> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.2.5i Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Hi, Does the Linux kernel support POSIX message queues as defined by the Single Unix Specification, v2, ie. http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007908799/xsh/mqueue.h.html stuff like mq_open(), mq_send(), mq_close(), etc. I've tried grepping the sources for 2.4.0, and could not find anything. I noticed that RTLinux seems to support it, in a header file called rtl_nfifo.h, in their distribution. Are there any plans to introduce POSIX message queues in the base-line Linux kernel?
