* Function: sem_getvalue
*
* Description:
* This function updates the location referenced by 'sval' argument to
* have the value of the semaphore referenced by 'sem' without effecting
* the state of the semaphore. The updated value represents the actual
* semaphore value that occurred at some unspecified time during the call,
* but may not reflect the actual value of the semaphore when it is
* returned to the calling task.
*
* If 'sem' is locked, the value return by sem_getvalue() will either be
* zero or a negative number whose absolute value represents the number
* of tasks waiting for the semaphore.
*
* Parameters:
* sem - Semaphore descriptor
* sval - Buffer by which the value is returned
*
* Return Value:
* 0 (OK), or -1 (ERROR) if unsuccessful
*
* Assumptions:
*
