Data Structures
struct	msg_t
	Describes a message object which can be sent between threads. More...

Macros
#define	KERNEL_PID_ISR (KERNEL_PID_LAST + 1)
	Value of msg_t::sender_pid if the sender was an interrupt service routine.

Functions
int	msg_send (msg_t *m, kernel_pid_t target_pid)
	Send a message (blocking).

int	msg_try_send (msg_t *m, kernel_pid_t target_pid)
	Send a message (non-blocking).

int	msg_send_to_self (msg_t *m)
	Send a message to the current thread.

int	msg_send_int (msg_t *m, kernel_pid_t target_pid)
	Send message from interrupt.

static int	msg_sent_by_int (const msg_t *m)
	Test if the message was sent inside an ISR.

int	msg_receive (msg_t *m)
	Receive a message.

int	msg_try_receive (msg_t *m)
	Try to receive a message.

int	msg_send_receive (msg_t m, msg_t reply, kernel_pid_t target_pid)
	Send a message, block until reply received.

int	msg_reply (msg_t m, msg_t reply)
	Replies to a message.

int	msg_reply_int (msg_t m, msg_t reply)
	Replies to a message from interrupt.

unsigned	msg_avail_thread (kernel_pid_t pid)
	Check how many messages are available (waiting) in the message queue of a specific thread.

unsigned	msg_avail (void)
	Check how many messages are available (waiting) in the message queue.

unsigned	msg_queue_capacity (kernel_pid_t pid)
	Get maximum capacity of a thread's queue length.

void	msg_init_queue (msg_t *array, int num)
	Initialize the current thread's message queue.

void	msg_queue_print (void)
	Prints the message queue of the current thread.
