Subject: mq_notify api of mqueue.h does not work

Hi,

I am using windows 10 and installed msys2 which internally uses "Cygwin
code base" to have ENV same as my linux machine.
I have implemented an IPC mechanism based on mqueue Apis. I see few mqueue
api's work properly like create and send as I can see the "/my_queue_name"
gets created under "/dev/mqueue/my_queue_name" and I see some data which I
put there. But I see the behavior is kind of diff with msys2 on windows.

Windows Machine:
$ ls -ltr

[When I do cat I see this crap + my added data with send API]

QSIZE:0 NOTIFY:0 SIGNO:0 NOTIFY_PID:0
[Here I see info. about which PID is kind of waiting on this queue to get
notified ]

The behavior where a process subscribe to get notified if there some msg in
the queue kind of works correctly in my Linux machine, but on windows with
msys2 that behavior I am not able to achieve.
code path:

Thanks in advance!
