rmvq(9r)
NAME
  rmvq - STREAMS: Removes a message block from a queue

SYNOPSIS
  #include <sys/stream.h>

  void rmvq(
	  queue_t *queue_pointer,
	  MBLKP message_to_be_removed );

ARGUMENTS
  queue_pointer
      Specifies a pointer to the queue that contains the message block to be
      removed. The typedef queue_t is an alternate name for struct
      queue_entry *.

  message_to_be_removed
      Specifies a pointer to the message block to be removed. The typedef
      MBLKP is an alternate name for typedef struct msgb *.

DESCRIPTION
  The rmvq interface removes a message block from a queue. You can remove a
  message block from anywhere on a queue. To prevent modules and drivers from
  having to deal with the internals of message linking on a queue, you can
  call either rmvq or getq to remove a message block from a queue.

CAUTIONS
  Make sure the message block pointer you pass to the message_to_be_removed
  argument exists to avoid a possible system panic.

RETURN VALUES
  None
