putctl1 - send a control message with a one-byte parameter to a queue
As shipped in IRIX 6.5.22. Unchanged since IRIX 6.5.
NAME putctl1 - send a control message with a one-byte parameter to a queue SYNOPSIS #include <sys/stream.h> #include <sys/ddi.h> int putctl1(queue_t *q, int type, int param); Arguments q Pointer to the queue to which the message is to be sent. type Message type (must be a control type). param One-byte parameter. DESCRIPTION putctl1, like putctl(D3), tests the type argument to make sure a data type has not been specified, and attempts to allocate a message block. The param parameter can be used, for example, to specify the signal number when an M_PCSIG message is being sent. putctl1 fails if type is M_DATA, M_PROTO, or M_PCPROTO, or if a message block cannot be allocated. If successful, putctl1 calls the put(D2) routine of the queue pointed to by q, passing it the allocated message. Return Values On success, 1 is returned. Otherwise, if type is a data type, or if a message block cannot be allocated, 0 is returned. Level Base or Interrupt. Synchronization Constraints Does not sleep. Driver-defined basic locks, read/write locks, and sleep locks may not be held across calls to this function. Examples See putctl(D3) for an example of putctl1. REFERENCES put(D2), putctl(D3)
