+.rt
+The type of message to be tested. The \fBdb_type\fR field of the
+\fBdatab\fR(9S) structure contains the message type. This field may be accessed
+through the message block using \fBmp->b_datap->db_type\fR.

+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.sp
+.LP
+The \fBdatamsg()\fR function tests the type of message to determine if it is a
+data message type (\fBM_DATA\fR, \fBM_DELAY\fR, \fBM_PROTO\fR , or
+\fBM_PCPROTO\fR).

+.SH CONTEXT
+.sp
+.LP
+The \fBdatamsg()\fR function can be called from user, interrupt, or kernel
+context.
+.SH EXAMPLES
+.sp
+.LP
+The \fBput\fR(9E) routine enqueues all data messages for handling by the
+\fBsrv\fR(9E) (service) routine. All non-data messages are handled in the
+\fBput\fR(9E) routine.
