              Equivalent to S_OUTPUT.

              read queue.

       S_BANDURG
              When  used  in  conjunction  with S_RDBAND, SIGURG is generated instead of SIGPOLL when a priority
              message reaches the front of the STREAM head read queue.

       At least the following macros shall be defined for use with I_PEEK:

       RS_HIPRI

              head read queue.

       RPROTDAT
              Deliver the control part of a message as data when a process issues a read().

       LASTMARK
              Check if the message is the last one marked on the queue.

       At least the following macros shall be defined for use with I_UNLINK:

       MUXID_ALL
              Unlink all STREAMs linked to the STREAM associated with fildes.

       The following macros shall be defined for getmsg(), getpmsg(), putmsg(), and putpmsg():

       MSG_ANY
              Receive any message.

       MSG_BAND
              Receive message from specified band.

       MSG_HIPRI

       be provided.

              int    isastream(int);
              int    getmsg(int, struct strbuf *restrict, struct strbuf *restrict,
                         int *restrict);

              int    ioctl(int, int, ... );
