Unlike * Linux, a NuttX FIFO is not a special file type but simply a device * driver instance. 'mode' specifies the FIFO's permissions. * * Once the FIFO has been created by nx_mkfifo(), any thread can open it * for reading or writing, in the same way as an ordinary file. However, it * must have been opened from both reading and writing before input or * output can be performed. This FIFO implementation will block all * attempts to open a FIFO read-only until at least one thread has opened * the FIFO for writing. * * If all threads that write to the FIFO have closed, subsequent calls to * read() on the FIFO will return 0 (end-of-file). * * NOTE: nx_mkfifo is a special, non-standard, NuttX-only interface. Since * the NuttX FIFOs are based in in-memory, circular buffers, the ability * to control the size of those buffers is critical for system tuning. * * Input Parameters: * pathname - The full path to the FIFO instance to attach to or to create * (if not already created). * mode - Ignored for now * bufsize - The size of the in-memory, circular buffer in bytes. * * Returned Value: * 0 is returned on success; a negated errno value is returned on a * failure. * ****************************************************************************/ int nx_mkfifo(FAR const char *pathname, mode_t mode, size_t bufsize) { FAR struct pipe_dev_s *dev; int ret; /* Allocate and initialize a new device structure instance */ dev = pipecommon_allocdev(bufsize); if (!dev) { return -ENOMEM; } ret = register_driver(pathname, &fifo_fops, mode, (FAR void *)dev); if (ret != 0) { pipecommon_freedev(dev); } return ret; } #endif /* CONFIG_DEV_FIFO_SIZE > 0 */
