/**

* @brief Generic interface for semaphores, which can be used to achieve
|
|
* task synchronization. This is a generic interface which can be
|
|
* used for both binary semaphores and counting semaphores.
|
|
* @details
|
|
* A semaphore is a synchronization primitive.
|
|
* See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semaphore_(programming)
|
|
* A semaphore can be used to achieve task synchonization and track the
|
|
* availability of resources.
|
|
*
|
|
* If mutual exlcusion of a resource is desired, a mutex should be used,
|
|
* which is a special form of a semaphore and has an own interface.
