       insq - STREAMS: Inserts a STREAMS message into a queue

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

       #include <sys/stream.h>

       int insq(
               queue_t *message_queue,
               MBLKP message,
               MBLKP message_to_be_inserted );

ARGUMENTS    [Toc]    [Back]

       Specifies a pointer to the message queue that contains the
       message  passed  to  the  message  argument.  The  typedef
       queue_t  is  an  alternate  name for struct queue_entry *.
       Specifies the enqueued message before which the  new  message
  is to be inserted. The typedef MBLKP is an alternate
       name for typedef struct msgb *.  Specifies the message  to
       be  inserted.  The  typedef MBLKP is an alternate name for
       typedef struct msgb *.

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

       The insq interface inserts a STREAMS message into a queue.
       The  message  to  be  inserted (the message_to_be_inserted
       argument) is placed in the queue (the message_queue  argument)
  immediately  before the message associated with the
       message argument. If the message argument  is  NULL,  insq
       places the new message at the end of the queue. The interface
 ignores the queue class of the  new  message  and  it
       updates  all  flow-control  parameters. The insq interface
       also enables the service procedure unless the QNOENB  flag
       bit is set.

CAUTIONS    [Toc]    [Back]

       If  the  message  argument is non-NULL, it must point to a
       message on the queue or a system panic could occur.

RETURN VALUES    [Toc]    [Back]

       Upon successful completion, insq returns the value  1.  On
       failure, it returns the value zero (0).
