NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

       flushq - STREAMS: Removes a message from a queue

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

       #include <sys/stream.h>

       void flushq(
               queue_t *queue,
               int flag );

ARGUMENTS    [Toc]    [Back]

       Specifies  a pointer to the queue to be flushed. The typedef
 queue_t is an alternate name for struct queue_entry *.
       Specifies  one  of  the following flag flush values: Flush
       only data messages.  These data messages  are  represented
       by  the M_DATA, M_DELAY, M_PROTO, and M_PCPROTO constants.
       Flush all messages. Requests a realtime delay

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

       The flushq interface frees messages and  their  associated
       data  structures  by calling the freemsg interface. If the
       queue's count falls  below  the  low-water  mark  and  the
       QWANTW  bit  is  set,  flushq enables the nearest upstream
       service procedure.

RETURN VALUES    [Toc]    [Back]

       None
