ti_msgmgr_queue_peek_data(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

🌸 ti_msgmgr_queue_peek_data(9) 🌸

okay bestie, so this is a Kernel API Manual page (section 9, if you're keeping track) for ti_msgmgr_queue_peek_data 💅 it's from the kernel docs, and it is short — like, the actual page is basically a vibe check in three lines. but we're gonna make it cute anyway 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

ti_msgmgr_queue_peek_data — peek to see if there are any rx messages 👀 like literally just a lil look, no commitment, no removing anything (that's the whole point of peek, iykyk)

🌈 SYNOPSIS 🌈

bool ti_msgmgr_queue_peek_data (struct mbox_chan *chan );

it returns a bool btw, and takes exactly one argument ✨ that's it, that's the whole signature 🎀

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • chan — Channel Pointer 💫 yes that's genuinely all the original says, she's a woman of few words. it's the channel pointer. that's the tea 🍓

💜 RETURN 💜

okay so here's the thing — the RETURN section on the original page is completely empty 😭 like, nothing. no documented return values. not a single word. so we are not gonna sit here and make something up, because that would be a lie and lying is not iconic 🙈

no cap: it returns a bool per the synopsis (see above 💖), but the manual page itself documents zero return semantics. don't invent lore.

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

the whole friend group 🫶 these are all (9) pages, and the manpage also points you at the kernel file ./drivers/mailbox/ti-msgmgr.c plus the struct 🎀 here's the full squad, nobody left behind:

and the kernel file reference in full: Kernel file ./drivers/mailbox/ti-msgmgr.c struct 🌟

lowkey the move is: if you actually need to know whether messages exist, ti_msgmgr_queue_get_num_messages(9) is right there in the see-also list 👑 but that's just me pointing at the list, not adding new docs, bestie 💀

🧚 sign-off 🧚

this lil page lives under ./drivers/mailbox (that's the source path, slay) and it was stamped October 2026 ⭐ so yeah, future-dated manual page, main character energy fr fr 🌸 and the whole thing is filed under ti_msgmgr_queue_peek_data(9) — that's the title, that's the manual, that's the era 💖 mwah, go peek at your queues responsibly 🎀
