haiku/headers/posix/semaphore.h
Ingo Weinhold 3dfe682f55 * Added some padding to the sem_t structure.
* Changed the semantics of unnamed semaphores. Before parent and child
  of a fork() would always share an earlier created semaphore. Now we do
  that only, if the "shared" parameter of sem_init() was true. That's
  still not quite the behavior Linux and Solaris have, but should be
  perfectly fine with how reasonable code would use the API.
* There's a global table for shared unnamed semaphores now. ATM a
  semaphore is leaked when no one explicitly destroys it (just as with
  named sems).
* Enforce per-team and global semaphore number limits.
