 * @brief   Semaphores code.
 *
 * @addtogroup semaphores
 * @details Semaphores related APIs and services.
 *          <h2>Operation mode</h2>
 *          Semaphores are a flexible synchronization primitive, ChibiOS/RT
 *          implements semaphores in their "counting semaphores" variant as
 *          defined by Edsger Dijkstra plus several enhancements like:
 *          - Wait operation with timeout.
 *          - Reset operation.
 *          - Atomic wait+signal operation.
 *          - Return message from the wait operation (OK, RESET, TIMEOUT).
 *          .
 *          The binary semaphores variant can be easily implemented using
 *          counting semaphores.<br>
 *          Operations defined for semaphores:
 *          - <b>Signal</b>: The semaphore counter is increased and if the
 *            result is non-positive then a waiting thread is removed from
 *            the semaphore queue and made ready for execution.
 *          - <b>Wait</b>: The semaphore counter is decreased and if the result
 *            becomes negative the thread is queued in the semaphore and
 *            suspended.
 *          - <b>Reset</b>: The semaphore counter is reset to a non-negative
 *            value and all the threads in the queue are released.
 *          .
 *          Semaphores can be used as guards for mutual exclusion zones
 *          (note that mutexes are recommended for this kind of use) but
 *          also have other uses, queues guards and counters for example.<br>
 *          Semaphores usually use a FIFO queuing strategy but it is possible
 *          to make them order threads by priority by enabling
 *          @p CH_CFG_USE_SEMAPHORES_PRIORITY in @p chconf.h.
 * @pre     In order to use the semaphore APIs the @p CH_CFG_USE_SEMAPHORES
 *          option must be enabled in @p chconf.h.
