STREAMS queues are allocated in pairs. One queue is always the upstream or read-side; the other is the downstream or write-side. These queues hold the messages, and tell the kernel which processing routines apply to each message passing through a module. The queue structure type is queue_t. Fields in the queue data structure are detailed in queue(9S).
