+mq_recvmmsg system call
+=============================
+
+This document describes the mq_recvmmsg() system call. It provides
+an overview of the feature, interface specification, design, and
+test specification.
+
+Contents
+--------
+
+ 1) Overview
+ 2) Functional Specification
+ 3) Design
+ 4) Test Specification
+
+1) Overview
+-----------
+
+POSIX message queues on Linux provide mq_timedreceive() for consuming
+messages from a queue.This interface requires the caller to pass the
+message buffer, length and priority pointer as individual arguments to
+the system call. This imposes a fixed calling convention that cannot be
+extended without breaking the ABI.
+
+mq_recvmmsg() introduces a new system call entry point that accepts
+message buffer parameters via a struct argument inside a iovec rather
+than as individual syscall arguments.
+
+One 64-bit variant is provided with compat handling:
+ mq_recvmmsg()
+
+2) Functional Specification
+---------------------------
+
+NAME
+ mq_recvmmsg - receive or peek as a batch of messages from a
+ POSIX message queue
+
+SYNOPSIS
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ #include <mqueue.h>
+
+ struct mq_msg_attrs {
+ __kernel_size_t msg_len;
+ unsigned int __user *msg_prio;
+ void __user *msg_ptr;
+ };
+
+ struct mq_mmsg_attrs {
+ struct iovec __user *msg_attrs_vec;
+ __kernel_size_t vlen;
+ int *ret;
+ };
+
+ ssize_t mq_recvmmsg(mqd_t mqdes, struct mq_mmsg_attrs *attrs,
+ unsigned int attrs_len, unsigned int flags,
+ unsigned long start_idx,
+ const struct __kernel_timespec *abs_timeout);
+
+
+DESCRIPTION
+ mq_recvmmsg() receives or peeks as a batch of messages from the
+ message queue referred to by the descriptor mqdes.
+
+ The flags argument controls receive behavior. The following
+ flag is defined:
+
+ ``MQ_PEEK``
+ Copies the message into struct mq_msg_attrs without removing it from
+ the queue. The queue is not modified.
+
+ ``MQ_RECV``
+ Copies and consumes messages from the queue up to the count specified
+ by vlen.
+
+ The start_idx argument specifies which message to begin operating on within
+ the priority-ordered queue, relative to the requested batch range.
+
+ The abs_timeout argument specifies an absolute timeout for the entire batch
+ operation. When MQ_PEEK is set, abs_timeout is ignored, since peek is a
+ non-blocking snapshot operation. When MQ_PEEK is not set, abs_timeout be the
+ timeout for the entire batch.
+
+RETURN VALUE
+ On success, returns the number of messages copied into user-space.
+
+ On failure, the function returns an error directly without writing
+ to the ret field of struct mq_mmsg_attrs in two situations:
+
+ * An error occurred before a single message was successfully copied to user space.
+ * new error occurred in writing error itself in ret field of struct mq_mmsg_attrs
+ after partial success before completing batch.
+
+
+ERRORS
+ ``EAGAIN``
+ Queue is empty and MQ_PEEK is set. Peek is always
+ non-blocking and returns immediately on empty queue.
+
+ ``EBADF``
+ mqdes is not a valid message queue descriptor open
+ for reading.
+
+ ``EFAULT``
+ attrs, msg_ptr, msg_prio, or abs_timeout points to
+ an invalid address or any invalid address.
+
+ ``EINVAL``
+ The batch size is too large, start_idx is inconsistent with the
+ current queue state, flags contains an unrecognized value, or contradictory
+ flags were passed.
+
+ ``EMSGSIZE``
+ msg_len is less than the mq_msgsize attribute of
+ the queue.
+
+ ``E2BIG``
+ attrs_len is greater than PAGE_SIZE.
+
+ ``ETIMEDOUT``
+ Pop path only. The call timed out before a message
+ became available. Never returned on peek path.
+
+ ``ENODATA``
+ No valid message exists matching the given parameters.
+
+ ``ENOMEM``
+ Insufficient memory to complete the operation.
+
+3) Design
+---------
+
+3.1 Struct-based argument passing
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The message buffer parameters (msg_ptr, msg_len, msg_prio) are consolidated
+into struct mq_msg_attrs rather than passed as individual syscall arguments.
+These are then referenced via struct mq_mmsg_attrs, which contains an
+iovec msg_attrs_vec and a vlen count. The base of msg_attrs_vec holds individual
+mq_msg_attrs entries, and length store struct mq_msg_attrs size.
+
+
+3.2 Compat handling
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ struct compat_msg_attrs {
+ compat_size_t msg_len;
+ compat_uptr_t msg_prio;
+ compat_uptr_t msg_ptr;
+ };
+
+ struct compat_mq_mmsg_attrs {
+ compat_uptr_t msg_attrs_vec;
+ compat_size_t vlen;
+ compat_uptr_t ret;
+ };
+
+
+The compat entry point performs the necessary conversions before
+calling the shared do_mq_recvmmsg() implementation.
+
+3.3 Peek implementation
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+When MQ_PEEK is set, the implementation locates the target message
+in the priority tree but does not remove it. Two locks are taken:
+the first confirms a message exists before any allocation is
+attempted and retrieve required buffer size to do memory allocation
+outside of critical section, avoiding allocation on empty queues.
+The second protects the kernel temporary buffer copy operation.
+
+3.4 start_idx argument
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The start_idx argument specifies which message to begin operating on within the queue.
+If a batch request fails partway through, user space is expected to supply an updated
+start_idx reflecting the number of messages already handled, failing to do so may result
+in unexpected message delivery.
+
+4) Test Specification
+---------------------
+
+Tests for mq_recvmmsg() should cover the following:
+
+1) Basic receive and peek — Verify that without MQ_PEEK the message is consumed and
+the queue depth decreases by one. Verify that the message body, priority, and return
+value are correct.
+
+2) Offset and boundary handling — Verify that the implementation correctly respects
+batch size and start_idx boundary conditions.
+
+3) Partial success — Verify that when an error occurs mid-batch, the call returns
+successfully with the count of messages processed so far, rather than discarding partial
+results.
