87 * Structure describing a message. The SVID doesn't suggest any
88 * particular name for this structure. There is a reference in the
89 * msgop man page that reads "The structure mymsg is an example of what
90 * this user defined buffer might look like, and includes the following
91 * members:". This sentence is followed by two lines equivalent
92 * to the mtype and mtext field declarations below. It isn't clear
93 * if "mymsg" refers to the naem of the structure type or the name of an
94 * instance of the structure...

108 * Each message is broken up and stored in segments that are msgssz bytes
109 * long. For efficiency reasons, this should be a power of two. Also,
110 * it doesn't make sense if it is less than 8 or greater than about 256.
111 * Consequently, msginit in kern/sysv_msg.c checks that msgssz is a power of
112 * two between 8 and 1024 inclusive (and panic's if it isn't).
