sem_open(3c)
sem_open(3C) Standard C Library Functions sem_open(3C)
NAME
sem_open - initialize/open a named semaphore
SYNOPSIS
#include <semaphore.h>
sem_t *sem_open(const char *name, int oflag,
/* unsigned long mode, unsigned int value */ ...);
DESCRIPTION
The sem_open() function establishes a connection between a named sema‐
phore and a process (or LWP or thread). Following a call to sem_open()
with semaphore name name, the process may reference the semaphore asso‐
ciated with name using the address returned from the call. This sema‐
phore may be used in subsequent calls to sem_wait(3C), sem_trywait(3C),
sem_post(3C), and sem_close(3C). The semaphore remains usable by this
process until the semaphore is closed by a successful call to
sem_close(3C), _Exit(2), or one of the exec functions.
The oflag argument controls whether the semaphore is created or merely
accessed by the call to sem_open(). The following flag bits may be set
in oflag:
O_CREAT This flag is used to create a semaphore if it does not al‐
ready exist. If O_CREAT is set and the semaphore already ex‐
ists, then O_CREAT has no effect, except as noted under
O_EXCL. Otherwise, sem_open() creates a named semaphore. The
O_CREAT flag requires a third and a fourth argument: mode,
which is of type mode_t, and value, which is of type un‐
signed int. The semaphore is created with an initial value
of value. Valid initial values for semaphores are less than
or equal to SEM_VALUE_MAX.
The user ID of the semaphore is set to the effective user ID
of the process; the group ID of the semaphore is set to a
system default group ID or to the effective group ID of the
process. The permission bits of the semaphore are set to the
value of the mode argument except those set in the file mode
creation mask of the process (see umask(2)). When bits in
mode other than the file permission bits are specified, the
effect is unspecified.
After the semaphore named name has been created by
sem_open() with the O_CREAT flag, other processes can con‐
nect to the semaphore by calling sem_open() with the same
value of name.
O_EXCL If O_EXCL and O_CREAT are set, sem_open() fails if the sema‐
phore name exists. The check for the existence of the sema‐
phore and the creation of the semaphore if it does not exist
are atomic with respect to other processes executing
sem_open() with O_EXCL and O_CREAT set. If O_EXCL is set and
O_CREAT is not set, the effect is undefined.
If flags other than O_CREAT and O_EXCL are specified in the oflag para‐
meter, the effect is unspecified.
The name argument points to a string naming a semaphore object. It is
unspecified whether the name appears in the file system and is visible
to functions that take pathnames as arguments. The name argument con‐
forms to the construction rules for a pathname. The first character of
name must be a slash (/) character and the remaining characters of name
cannot include any slash characters. For maximum portability, name
should include no more than 14 characters, but this limit is not en‐
forced.
If a process makes multiple successful calls to sem_open() with the
same value for name, the same semaphore address is returned for each
such successful call, provided that there have been no calls to sem_un‐
link(3C) for this semaphore.
References to copies of the semaphore produce undefined results.
The sem_init(3C) function is used with unnamed semaphores.
RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, the function returns the address of the
semaphore. Otherwise, it will return a value of SEM_FAILED and set er‐
rno to indicate the error. The symbol SEM_FAILED is defined in the
header <semaphore.h>. No successful return from sem_open() will return
the value SEM_FAILED.
ERRORS
If any of the following conditions occur, the sem_open() function will
return SEM_FAILED and set errno to the corresponding value:
EACCES The named semaphore exists and the O_RDWR permissions
are denied, or the named semaphore does not exist and
permission to create the named semaphore is denied.
EEXIST O_CREAT and O_EXCL are set and the named semaphore al‐
ready exists.
EINTR The sem_open() function was interrupted by a signal.
EINVAL The sem_open() operation is not supported for the given
name, or O_CREAT was set in oflag and value is greater
than SEM_VALUE_MAX.
EMFILE The number of open semaphore descriptors in this
process exceeds SEM_NSEMS_MAX, or the number of open
file descriptors in this process exceeds OPEN_MAX.
ENAMETOOLONG The length of name string exceeds PATH_MAX, or a path‐
name component is longer than NAME_MAX while
_POSIX_NO_TRUNC is in effect.
ENFILE Too many semaphores are currently open in the system.
ENOENT O_CREAT is not set and the named semaphore does not ex‐
ist.
ENOSPC There is insufficient space for the creation of the new
named semaphore.
ENOSYS The sem_open() function is not supported by the system.
