The new + semaphore has the user-defined name specified in ``name`` and the initial + count specified in ``count``. For control and maintenance of the semaphore, + RTEMS allocates and initializes a ${/glossary/smcb:/term}. The + RTEMS-assigned semaphore identifier is returned in ``id``. This semaphore + identifier is used with other semaphore related directives to access the + semaphore. + + The attribute set specified in ``attribute_set`` defines + + * the scope of the semaphore (local or global), + + * the discipline of the task wait queue used by the semaphore (FIFO or + priority), + + * the class of the semaphore (counting, binary, or simple binary), and + + * the locking protocol of a binary semaphore (priority inheritance, priority + ceiling or MrsP). + + The attribute set is built through a *bitwise or* of the attribute constants + described below. Not all combinations of attributes are allowed. Some + attributes are mutually exclusive. If mutually exclusive attributes are + combined, the behaviour is undefined. + + The *scope of a semaphore* is either the local node only (local scope) or all + nodes in a multiprocessing network (global scope). The scope is selected by + the mutually exclusive ${../../attr/if/local:/name} and + ${../../attr/if/global:/name} attributes. + + * The local scope is the default and can be emphasized through use + of the ${../../attr/if/local:/name} attribute. + + * The global scope is selected by the ${../../attr/if/global:/name} attribute. In + a single node system and the local and global scope are identical. + + The *task wait queue discipline* is selected by the mutually exclusive + ${../../attr/if/fifo:/name} and ${../../attr/if/priority:/name} attributes. + + * The ${/glossary/fifo:/term} discipline is the default and can be emphasized + through use of the ${../../attr/if/fifo:/name} attribute. + + * The priority discipline is selected by the ${../../attr/if/priority:/name} + attribute. Some locking protocols require the priority discipline. + + The *semaphore class* is selected by the mutually exclusive + ${../../attr/if/counting-semaphore:/name}, + ${../../attr/if/binary-semaphore:/name}, and + ${../../attr/if/simple-binary-semaphore:/name} attributes. + + * Counting semaphores are the default and can be emphasized through use of + the ${../../attr/if/counting-semaphore:/name} attribute. + + * Binary semaphores are mutual exclusion (mutex) synchronization primitives + which may have an owner. The count of a binary semaphore is restricted to + 0 and 1. The binary semaphore class is selected by the + ${../../attr/if/binary-semaphore:/name} attribute. + + * Simple binary semaphores have no owner. The count of a simple binary + semaphore is restricted to 0 and 1. They may be used for task and + interrupt synchronization. The simple binary semaphore class is selected + by the ${../../attr/if/simple-binary-semaphore:/name} attribute. + + Binary semaphores may use a *locking protocol*. If a locking protocol is + selected, then the scope shall be local and the priority task wait queue + discipline shall be selected. The locking protocol is selected by the + mutually exclusive ${../../attr/if/inherit-priority:/name}, + ${../../attr/if/priority-ceiling:/name}, and + ${../../attr/if/multiprocessor-resource-sharing:/name} attributes. + + * The default is to use no locking protocol. + + * The ${../../attr/if/inherit-priority:/name} attribute selects the priority + inheritance locking protocol. + + * The ${../../attr/if/priority-ceiling:/name} attribute selects the priority + ceiling locking protocol. For this locking protocol a priority ceiling + shall be specified in ``priority_ceiling``. + + * The ${../../attr/if/multiprocessor-resource-sharing:/name} attribute selects the + MrsP locking protocol in SMP configurations, otherwise it selects the + priority ceiling protocol. For this locking protocol a priority ceiling + shall be specified in ``priority_ceiling``. This priority is used to set + the priority ceiling in all scheduler instances.
