[issue5725] process SysV-Semaphore support

[jvdias]

jvdias <jason.vas.dias at gmail.com> added the comment:

I suggest a new sys SysV-semaphore API :

  sys.semget( sem_key, sem_nsems, sem_flags)
  sys.SEM_KEY_ANY = 0
  sys.SEM_UNDO    = 0x1000   /*chain of atomic kernel UNDO operations*/ 
  sys.SEM_GETPID  = 11   /* get sempid */
  sys.SEM_GETVAL  = 12   /* get semval */
  sys.SEM_GETALL  = 13   /* get all semval's */
  sys.SEM_GETNCNT = 14   /* get semncnt */
  sys.SEM_GETZCNT = 15   /* get semzcnt */
  sys.SEM_SETVAL  = 16   /* set semval */
  sys.SEM_SETALL  = 17   /* set all semval's */
#if ( ! defined(__sun__) ) || defined ( __GNU__ )
  sys.SEM_STAT    = 18
  sys.SEM_INFO    = 19
#endif
  
  sys.semop(semid, sops, nsops)

  sys.semtimedop(semid, sops, nsops,
                 timeout
                )
  
  sys.semctl(semid, semnum, cmd, ...);
