+.SH NAME
+sys/msg.h \- XSI message queue structures
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.LP
+\fB#include <sys/msg.h> \fP
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.LP
+The \fI<sys/msg.h>\fP header shall define the following data types
+through \fBtypedef\fP:
+.TP 7
+\fBmsgqnum_t\fP
+Used for the number of messages in the message queue.
+.TP 7
+\fBmsglen_t\fP
+Used for the number of bytes allowed in a message queue.
+.sp
+.LP
+These types shall be unsigned integer types that are able to store
+values at least as large as a type \fBunsigned short\fP.
+.LP
+The \fI<sys/msg.h>\fP header shall define the following constant as
+a message operation flag:
+.TP 7
+MSG_NOERROR
+No error if big message.
+.sp
+.LP
+The \fBmsqid_ds\fP structure shall contain the following members:
+.sp
+.RS
+.nf
+
+\fBstruct ipc_perm msg_perm \fP Operation permission structure. \fB
+msgqnum_t msg_qnum \fP Number of messages currently on queue. \fB
+msglen_t msg_qbytes\fP Maximum number of bytes allowed on queue. \fB
+pid_t msg_lspid \fP Process ID of last \fImsgsnd\fP
+ (). \fB
+pid_t msg_lrpid \fP Process ID of last \fImsgrcv\fP
+ (). \fB
+time_t msg_stime \fP Time of last \fImsgsnd\fP
+ (). \fB
+time_t msg_rtime \fP Time of last \fImsgrcv\fP
+ (). \fB
+time_t msg_ctime \fP Time of last change. \fB

+.LP
+The \fBpid_t\fP, \fBtime_t\fP, \fBkey_t\fP, \fBsize_t\fP, and \fBssize_t\fP
+types shall be defined as described in \fI<sys/types.h>\fP .
+.LP
+The following shall be declared as functions and may also be defined
+as macros. Function prototypes shall be provided.
+.sp
