Semaphores are used to synchronize processes providing a nonBusy wait
|
|
25 |
mechanism. A process can wait for the availability of some resource by
|
|
26 |
performing a Semaphore-wait, which will suspend the process until the
|
|
27 |
resource becomes available which is signalled by (another process performing)
|
|
28 |
Semaphore-signal.
|
|
29 |
If the resource has been alrady available before the wait, no suspending is
|
|
30 |
done, but the resource immediately allocated.
|
|

|
|
32 |
See samples in doc/coding.
