.Fd #include <sys/types.h>

.Fd #include <sys/ipc.h>

|
.Fd #include <sys/sem.h>

.Fn semctl "int semid" "int semnum" "int cmd" ...
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Fn Semctl
|
|
performs the operation indicated by
|
|
.Fa cmd
|
|
on the semaphore set indicated by
|
|
.Fa semid .
|
|
A fourth argument, a
|
|
.Fa "union semun arg" ,
|
|
is required for certain values of
|
|
.Fa cmd .
|
|
For the commands that use the
|
|
.Fa arg
|
|
parameter,
|
|
.Fa "union semun"
|
|
is defined as follows:
|
|
.Bd -literal
|
|
.\"
|
|
.\" From <sys/sem.h>:
|
|
.\"
|
|
union semun {
|
|
int val; /* value for SETVAL */
|
|
struct semid_ds *buf; /* buffer for IPC_STAT & IPC_SET */
|
|
u_short *array; /* array for GETALL & SETALL */
|
|
};
|
|

|

Commands are performed as follows:

|
.\" This section based on Stevens, _Advanced Programming in the UNIX
|
|
.\" Environment_.
|
|
.\"
|
|
.Bl -tag -width IPC_RMIDXXX
|
|
.It Dv IPC_STAT
|
|
Fetch the semaphore set's
|
|
.Fa "struct semid_ds" ,
|
|
storing it in the memory pointed to by
|
|
.Fa arg.buf .
|
|
.It Dv IPC_SET
|
|
Changes the
|
|
.Fa sem_perm.uid ,
|
|
.Fa sem_perm.gid ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Fa sem_perm.mode
|
|
members of the semaphore set's
|
|
.Fa "struct semid_ds"
|
|
to match those of the struct pointed to by
|
|
.Fa arg.buf .
|
|
The calling process's effective uid must
|
|
match either
|
|
.Fa sem_perm.uid
|
|
or
|
|
.Fa sem_perm.cuid ,
|
|
or it must have superuser privileges.
|
|
.It IPC_RMID
|
|
Immediately removes the semaphore set from the system. The calling
|
|
process's effective uid must equal the semaphore set's
|
|
.Fa sem_perm.uid
|
|
or
|
|
.Fa sem_perm.cuid ,
|
|
or the process must have superuser privileges.
|
|
.It Dv GETVAL
|
|
Return the value of semaphore number
|
|
.Fa semnum .
|
|
.It Dv SETVAL
|
|
Set the value of semaphore number
|
|
.Fa semnum
|
|
to
|
|
.Fa arg.val .
|
|
.It Dv GETPID
|
|
Return the pid of the last process to perform an operation on
|
|
semaphore number
|
|
.Fa semnum .
|
|
.It Dv GETNCNT
|
|
Return the number of processes waiting for semaphore number
|
|
.Fa semnum Ns 's
|
|
value to become greater than its current value.
|
|
.It Dv GETZCNT
|
|
Return the number of processes waiting for semaphore number
|
|
.Fa semnum Ns 's
|
|
value to become 0.
|
|
.It Dv GETALL
|
|
Fetch the value of all of the semaphores in the set into the
|
|
array pointed to by
|
|
.Fa arg.array .
|
|
.It Dv SETALL
|
|
Set the values of all of the semaphores in the set to the values
|
|
in the array pointed to by
|
|
.Fa arg.array .

The

.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
On success, when
|
|
.Fa cmd
|
|
is one of GETVAL, GETNCNT, or GETZCNT,
|
|
.Fn semctl
|
|
returns the corresponding value; otherwise, 0 is returned.
|
|
On failure, -1 is returned, and
|
|
.Va errno
|
|
is set to indicate the error.
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
.Fn Semctl
|
|
will fail if:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er
|
|
.It Bq Er EINVAL
|
|
No semaphore set corresponds to
|
|
.Fa semid .
|
|
.It Bq Er EINVAL
|
|
.Fa semnum
|
|
is not in the range of valid semaphores for given semaphore set.
|
|
.It Bq Er EPERM
|
|
The calling process's effective uid does not match the uid of
|
|
the semaphore set's owner or creator.
|
|
.It Bq Er EACCES
|
|
Permission denied due to mismatch between operation and mode of
|
|
semaphore set.
