Does the mq_timedreceive() fully implement the POSIX specification?

[K K]

Hi All,

I am doing POSIX test on linux. And for mq_timedreceive() in POSIX spec
2008 Issue 7, Line 43787:

  The validity of the abstime parameter need not be checked if a
  message can be removed from the message queue immediately.

But when I run test case mq_timedreceive/10-2 of POSIX suite (can be viewed
at :
http://ltp.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=ltp/ltp.git;a=blob;f=testcases/open_posix_testsuite/conformance/interfaces/mq_timedreceive/10-2.c;h=49ee4f243fc5046a965a551650d8697217faac35;hb=HEAD),
mq_timedreceive() could get the message without wait, but the timeout is
still validated.

Do we intend to do so, or the implementation needs update?

Thanks and Regards,
Kai
