+.Dt MQ_NOTIFY 2
+.Os
+.Sh NAME
+.Nm mq_notify
+.Nd "notify process that a message is available (REALTIME)"
+.Sh LIBRARY
+.Lb libc
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.In mqueue.h
+.Ft int
+.Fn mq_notify "mqd_t mqdes" "const struct sigevent *notification"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+If the argument notification is not
+.Dv NULL ,
+this system call will register the calling process to be notified of message
+arrival at an empty message queue associated with the specified message
+queue descriptor,
+.Fa mqdes .
+The notification specified by the
+.Fa notification
+argument will be sent to
+the process when the message queue transitions from empty to non-empty.
+At any time, only one process may be registered for notification by a
+message queue.
+If the calling process or any other process has already
+registered for notification of message arrival at the specified message
+queue, subsequent attempts to register for that message queue will fail.
+.Pp
+The
+.Fa notification
+argument points to a
+.Vt sigevent
+structure that defines how the calling process will be notified.
+If
+.Fa notification->sigev_notify
+is
+.Dv SIGEV_NONE ,
+then no signal will be posted, but the error status and the return status
+for the operation will be set appropriately.
+If
+.Fa notification->sigev_notify
+is
+.Dv SIGEV_SIGNAL ,
+then the signal specified in
+.Fa notification->sigev_signo
+will be sent to the process.
+The signal will be queued to the process and the value specified in
+.Fa notification->sigev_value
+will be the
+.Va si_value
+component of the generated signal.
+.Pp
+If
+.Fa notification
+is
+.Dv NULL
+and the process is currently registered for notification by the specified
+message queue, the existing registration will be removed.
+.Pp
+When the notification is sent to the registered process, its registration
+is removed.
+The message queue then is available for registration.
+.Pp
+If a process has registered for notification of message arrival at a
+message queue and some thread is blocked in
+.Fn mq_receive
+waiting to receive a message when a message arrives at the queue, the
+arriving message will satisfy the appropriate
+.Fn mq_receive .
+The resulting behavior is as if the message queue remains empty, and no
+notification will be sent.
+.Sh RETURN VALUES
+.Rv -std
+.Sh ERRORS
+The
+.Fn mq_notify
+system call
+will fail if:
+.Bl -tag -width Er
+.It Bq Er EBADF
+The
+.Fa mqdes
+argument is not a valid message queue descriptor.
+.It Bq Er EBUSY
+Process is already registered for notification by the message queue.
