.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In sys/types.h
|
|
.In sys/ipc.h
|
|
.In sys/sem.h
|
|
.Ft int
|

.Fn semop "int semid" "struct sembuf *array" "size_t nops"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn semop
|
|
system call
|
|
atomically performs the array of operations indicated by
|
|
.Fa array
|
|
on the semaphore set indicated by
|
|
.Fa semid .
|
|
The length of
|
|
.Fa array
|
|
is indicated by
|
|
.Fa nops .
|
|
Each operation is encoded in a
|
|
.Vt "struct sembuf" ,
|
|
which is defined as follows:
|
|
.\"
|
|
.\" From <sys/sem.h>
|
|
.\"
|
|
.Bd -literal
|
|
struct sembuf {
|
|
u_short sem_num; /* semaphore # */
|
|
short sem_op; /* semaphore operation */
|
|
short sem_flg; /* operation flags */
|
|
};
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For each element in
|
|
.Fa array ,
|
|
.Va sem_op
|
|
and
|
|
.Va sem_flg
|
|
determine an operation to be performed on semaphore number
|
|
.Va sem_num
|
|
in the set.
|
|
The values
|
|
.Dv SEM_UNDO
|
|
and
|
|
.Dv IPC_NOWAIT
|
|
may be
|
|
.Em OR Ns 'ed
|
|
into the
|
|
.Va sem_flg
|
|
member in order to modify the behavior of the given operation.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The operation performed depends as follows on the value of
|
|
.Va sem_op :
|
|
.\"
|
|
.\" This section is based on the description of semop() in
|
|
.\" Stevens, _Advanced Programming in the UNIX Environment_,
|
|
.\" and the semop(2) description in The Open Group Unix2 specification.
|
|
.\"
|
|
.Bl -bullet
|
|
.It
|
|
When
|
|
.Va sem_op
|
|
is positive and the process has alter permission,
|
|
the semaphore's value is incremented by
|
|
.Va sem_op Ns 's
|
|
value.
|
|
If
|
|
.Dv SEM_UNDO
|
|
is specified, the semaphore's adjust on exit value is decremented by
|
|
.Va sem_op Ns 's
|
|
value.
|
|
A positive value for
|
|
.Va sem_op
|
|
generally corresponds to a process releasing a resource
|
|
associated with the semaphore.
|
|
.It
|
|
The behavior when
|
|
.Va sem_op
|
|
is negative and the process has alter permission,
|
|
depends on the current value of the semaphore:
|
|
.Bl -bullet
|
|
.It
|
|
If the current value of the semaphore is greater than or equal to
|
|
the absolute value of
|
|
.Va sem_op ,
|
|
then the value is decremented by the absolute value of
|
|
.Va sem_op .
|
|
If
|
|
.Dv SEM_UNDO
|
|
is specified, the semaphore's adjust on exit
|
|
value is incremented by the absolute value of
|
|
.Va sem_op .
|
|
.It
|
|
If the current value of the semaphore is less than the absolute value of
|
|
.Va sem_op ,
|
|
one of the following happens:
|
|
.\" XXX a *second* sublist?
|
|
.Bl -bullet
|
|
.It
|
|
If
|
|
.Dv IPC_NOWAIT
|
|
was specified, then
|
|
.Fn semop
|
|
returns immediately with a return value of
|
|
.Er EAGAIN .
|
|
.It
|
|
Otherwise, the calling process is put to sleep until one of the following
|
|
conditions is satisfied:
|
|
.\" XXX We already have two sublists, why not a third?
|
|
.Bl -bullet
|
|
.It
|
|
Some other process removes the semaphore with the
|
|
.Dv IPC_RMID
|
|
option of
|
|
.Xr semctl 2 .
|
|
In this case,
|
|
.Fn semop
|
|
returns immediately with a return value of
|
|
.Er EIDRM .
|
|
.It
|
|
The process receives a signal that is to be caught.
|
|
In this case, the process will resume execution as defined by
|
|
.Xr sigaction 2 .
|
|
.It
|
|
The semaphore's
|
|
value is greater than or equal to the absolute value of
|
|
.Va sem_op .
|
|
When this condition becomes true, the semaphore's value is decremented
|
|
by the absolute value of
|
|
.Va sem_op ,
|
|
the semaphore's adjust on exit value is incremented by the
|
|
absolute value of
|
|
.Va sem_op .
|
|
.El
|
|
.El
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
A negative value for
|
|
.Va sem_op
|
|
generally means that a process is waiting for a resource to become
|
|
available.
|
|
.It
|
|
When
|
|
.Va sem_op
|
|
is zero and the process has read permission,
|
|
one of the following will occur:
|
|
.Bl -bullet
|
|
.It
|
|
If the current value of the semaphore is equal to zero
|
|
then
|
|
.Fn semop
|
|
can return immediately.
|
|
.It
|
|
If
|
|
.Dv IPC_NOWAIT
|
|
was specified, then
|
|
.Fn semop
|
|
returns immediately with a return value of
|
|
.Er EAGAIN .
|
|
.It
|
|
Otherwise, the calling process is put to sleep until one of the following
|
|
conditions is satisfied:
|
|
.\" XXX Another nested sublists
|
|
.Bl -bullet
|
|
.It
|
|
Some other process removes the semaphore with the
|
|
.Dv IPC_RMID
|
|
option of
|
|
.Xr semctl 2 .
|
|
In this case,
|
|
.Fn semop
|
|
returns immediately with a return value of
|
|
.Er EIDRM .
|
|
.It
|
|
The process receives a signal that is to be caught.
|
|
In this case, the process will resume execution as defined by
|
|
.Xr sigaction 2 .
|
|
.It
|
|
The semaphore's value becomes zero.
|
|
.El
|
|
.El
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For each semaphore a process has in use, the kernel maintains an
|
|
.Dq "adjust on exit"
|
|
value, as alluded to earlier.
|
|
When a process
|
|
exits, either voluntarily or involuntarily, the adjust on exit value
|
|
for each semaphore is added to the semaphore's value.
|
|
This can
|
|
be used to ensure that a resource is released if a process terminates
|
|
unexpectedly.
