Hi Kaspar,
thanks a lot for your answer. Indeed mbox is providing some of my
requirements. I could have come to that by myself if I had looked more
carefully, especially because I already saw this mbox mechanism.
Limitations for my use case are:
- the queue length must be a power of two
- objects in put to the mbox have to be of type msg_t and cannot have
arbitrary item size
- there is no option to put messages in front of the queue or the last
written place
Maybe, I did not formulate my question precisely enough. I would like
to put copies of data items of arbitrary but fixed size in the queue.
Regards
Gunar

receiving thread?
What I'm looking for is a message queue that can be used by a number of
threads to send messages to and receive messages from the shared queue,
as it is possible in FreeRTOS, for example.
Does mbox suit your needs?
Kaspar
