Skill instructions
Testing the Message Queue This skill describes how to write tests for the bocpy message queue — the lock-free, tag-based MPSC ring buffer implemented in C that underlies send()/receive(). Architecture Overview | Component | Detail | |-----------|--------| | Queues | 16 statically allocated ring buffers (BOCQUEUECOUNT = 16), each with capacity 16 384. | | Tags | String labels that map 1:1 to queues. Each unique tag occupies one queue slot. | | Assignment modes | Automatic (default): tags claim a queue on first send/receive. Explicit: settags() pre-assigns tags, clears all messages, and resets queues. | | settags([]) | Drains every queue, frees all tag associations, and sets all queues to UNASSIGNED — effectively restoring auto-assign mode. | | Thread safety | Enqueue is lock-free (atomic CAS on tail). Multiple threads can send to the same tag concurrently. receive spins on the queue with a sleep until a message is available or a timeout elapses. | Test File Location Message queue tests
