Parameters

semID

The semaphore ID of a resource or counting semaphore acquired by a call to RTX_Create_Sem.

Return Value

Comments

The resource's usage count is decremented by one for each call to this function.   The resource is not freed until the usage count becomes zero.

Once freed, the resource will immediately be given to the task (if any) which is waiting at the head of this semaphore's wait queue.   Task rescheduling occurs immediately if necessary.
