Question
Part II: Binary Semaphore
struct binary_senaphore
enum (zero, one) value;
queueType quaue;
void senklaite (binary_semaphore s1
if (8.value -- one)
- 2aro;
a.value
else
/* place this process in s.queue /:
/* block this process */
void sensignalB(senaphore sl
if (8. queue is enpty (1)
a.value - one
else i
/* remova a process P from s- queue */:
* place process P on ready 1ist */:
Figure 2. A simple program structure of binary semaphore primitives.
Questions:
3. Briefly explain the purpose of the semWaitB and
semsignalB functions in Figure 2.
4. Based on Figures 1 and 2, which semaphore
structure is easier to implement and why?
