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

104 * Based on the configuration parameters described in an SVR2 (yes, two)

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