9 flushq \- remove messages from a queue
13 #include <sys/stream.h>
17 \fBvoid\fR \fBflushq\fR(\fBqueue_t *\fR\fIq\fR, \fBint\fR \fIflag\fR);
23 Architecture independent level 1 (DDI/DKI).
31 Pointer to the queue to be flushed.
40 Valid \fIflag\fR values are:
49 Flush only data messages (types \fBM_DATA\fR \fBM_DELAY\fR \fBM_PROTO\fR and
65 The \fBflushq()\fR function frees messages and their associated data structures
66 by calling \fBfreemsg\fR(9F). If the queue's count falls below the low water
67 mark and the queue was blocking an upstream service procedure, the nearest
68 upstream service procedure is enabled.
72 The \fBflushq()\fR function can be called from user, interrupt, or kernel
76 \fBExample 1 \fRUsing \fBflushq()\fR
79 This example depicts the canonical flushing code for STREAMS modules. The
80 module has a write service procedure and potentially has messages on the queue.
81 If it receives an \fBM_FLUSH\fR message, and if the \fBFLUSHR\fR bit is on in
82 the first byte of the message (line 10), then the read queue is flushed (line
83 11). If the \fBFLUSHW\fR bit is on (line 12), then the write queue is flushed
84 (line 13). Then the message is passed along to the next entity in the stream
85 (line 14). See the example for \fBqreply\fR(9F) for the canonical flushing code
