class (source) not WASI

Semaphore(value=1)

This class implements semaphore objects.

Semaphores manage a counter representing the number of release() calls minus
the number of acquire() calls, plus an initial value. The acquire() method
blocks if necessary until it can return without making the counter
negative. If not given, value defaults to 1.

Changed in 3.3

3.3: changed from a factory function to a class.
