NAME

sreset − reset semaphore count

SYNOPSIS

int sreset(sem,count)
int sem;
int count;

DESCRIPTION

Sreset frees processes in the queue for semaphore sem, and resets its count to count.  This corresponds to the operations of sdelete(sem) and sem=screate(count), except that it guarantees that the semaphore id sem does not change.  Sreset returns SYSERR if sem is not a valid semaphore id.  The current count in a semaphore does not affect resetting it.
