This function unlocks the semaphore referenced by sem * by performing the semaphore unlock operation on that semaphore. * * If the semaphore value resulting from this operation is positive, then * no tasks were blocked waiting for the semaphore to become unlocked; the * semaphore is simply incremented. * * If the value of the semaphore resulting from this operation is zero, * then one of the tasks blocked waiting for the semaphore shall be * allowed to return successfully from its call to nxsem_wait(). * * Input Parameters: * sem - Semaphore descriptor * * Returned Value: * This is an internal OS interface and should not be used by applications. * It follows the NuttX internal error return policy: Zero (OK) is * returned on success. A negated errno value is returned on failure. * * Assumptions: * This function may be called from an interrupt handler. * ****************************************************************************/ int nxsem_post(FAR sem_t *sem) { FAR struct tcb_s *stcb = NULL; irqstate_t flags; int16_t sem_count; #ifdef CONFIG_PRIORITY_INHERITANCE uint8_t prioinherit; #endif DEBUGASSERT(sem != NULL); /* The following operations must be performed with interrupts * disabled because sem_post() may be called from an interrupt * handler. */ flags = enter_critical_section(); sem_count = sem->semcount; /* Check the maximum allowable value */ if (sem_count >= SEM_VALUE_MAX) { leave_critical_section(flags); return -EOVERFLOW; } /* Perform the semaphore unlock operation, releasing this task as a * holder then also incrementing the count on the semaphore. * * NOTE: When semaphores are used for signaling purposes, the holder * of the semaphore may not be this thread!
