.\"O POSIX semaphores allow processes and threads to synchronize their actions.

.\"O A semaphore is an integer whose value is never allowed to fall below zero.
.\"O Two operations can be performed on semaphores:
.\"O increment the semaphore value by one
.\"O .RB ( sem_post (3));
.\"O and decrement the semaphore value by one
.\"O .RB ( sem_wait (3)).
.\"O If the value of a semaphore is currently zero, then a
.\"O .BR sem_wait (3)
.\"O operation will block until the value becomes greater than zero.

.\" the fist subdirectory component must exist as the name

.\" required permissions if a user wants to create a semaphore

.\"O The
.\"O .BR sem_open (3)
.\"O function creates a new named semaphore or opens an existing
.\"O named semaphore.
.\"O After the semaphore has been opened, it can be operated on using
.\"O .BR sem_post (3)
.\"O and
.\"O .BR sem_wait (3).
.\"O When a process has finished using the semaphore, it can use
.\"O .BR sem_close (3)
.\"O to close the semaphore.
.\"O When all processes have finished using the semaphore,
.\"O it can be removed from the system using
.\"O .BR sem_unlink (3).

.\"O An unnamed semaphore does not have a name.
.\"O Instead the semaphore is placed in a region of memory that
.\"O is shared between multiple threads (a
.\"O .IR "thread-shared semaphore" )
.\"O or processes (a

.\"O A thread-shared semaphore is placed in an area of memory shared
.\"O between by the threads of a process, for example, a global variable.
.\"O A process-shared semaphore must be placed in a shared memory region
.\"O (e.g., a System V shared memory segment created using
.\"O .BR semget (2),
.\"O or a POSIX shared memory object built created using
