Thank you James for your viewing.
* In general, it can give a more fine grained and flexible DAC to msg queue obj. * NFSARK(A distro) wants all posix ipc objects to support ACL, including mqueue. * Posix semphore and shmem both support ACL, but mqueue as one of the three basic ipc doesn't. * At least, it may save one note sentence for MQ_OVERVIEW(7) ^_^ "Linux does not currently (2.6.26) support the use of access control lists (ACLs) for POSIX message queues." http://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/online/pages/man7/mq_overview.7.html
