33 /* A simple asynchronous message queue, based on pa_asyncq. In
34 * contrast to pa_asyncq this one is multiple-writer safe, though
35 * still not multiple-reader safe. This queue is intended to be used
36 * for controlling real-time threads from normal-priority
37 * threads. Multiple-writer-safety is accomplished by using a mutex on
38 * the writer side. This queue is thus not useful for communication
39 * between several real-time threads.
40 *
41 * The queue takes messages consisting of:
42 * "Object" for which this messages is intended (may be NULL)
43 * A numeric message code
44 * Arbitrary userdata pointer (may be NULL)
45 * A memchunk (may be NULL)
46 *
47 * There are two functions for submitting messages: _post and
48 * _send. The fromer just enqueues the message asynchronously, the
49 * latter waits for completion, synchronously. */
