mq_close - close a message queue descriptor
#include <mqueue.h> int mq_close(mqd_t mqdes); Link with -lrt.
mq_close() closes the message queue descriptor mqdes. If the calling process has attached a notification request (see (mq_notify(3)) to this message queue via mqdes, then this request is removed, and another process can now attach a notification request.
On success mq_close() returns 0; on error, -1 is returned, with errno set to indicate the error.
EBADF The message queue descriptor specified in mqdes is invalid.
