<h1 id="mqueue">Mqueue</h1>
<p>The mqueue construct allows a task to wake up when it receives data. Typically, this data is in the form of packets received over a network. A common networking stack operation is to put a packet on a queue and post an event to the task monitoring that queue. When the task handles the event, it processes each packet on the packet queue.</p>
<p><br></p>
<h3 id="using-mqueue">Using Mqueue</h3>
<p>The following code sample demonstrates how to use an mqueue. In this example:</p>
<ul>
<li>packets are put on a receive queue</li>
<li>a task processes each packet on the queue (increments a receive counter)</li>
</ul>
<p>Not shown in the code example is a call <code>my_task_rx_data_func</code>. Presumably, some other code will call this API. </p>
