| //! \section sec_mcusemaphore Introduction |
| //! |
| //! The MCU Semaphore offers 32 semaphores that each can be claimed and released in an atomic operation. |
| //! One and only one semaphore can be handled during a transaction. |
| //! |
| //! Claiming a semaphore causes subsequent claims/reads to return '0' (i.e. "not available"). |
| //! How the semaphores are used and respected is decided by software. |
| //! |
| //! \section sec_mcusemaphore_api API |
| //! |
| //! The API functions can be grouped like this: |
| //! |
| //! Semaphore acquire: |
| //! - \ref SMPHAcquire() |
| //! - \ref SMPHTryAcquire() |
| //! |
| //! Semaphore release: |
| //! - \ref SMPHRelease() |
