10.4 Synchronization and Messaging Tools

Synchronization and messaging tools are kernel constructs that help developers create real-time applications. Some of these services are:

• Semaphores

• Event flags

• Mailboxes

• Pipes

• Message queues

Semaphores are used to synchronize access to shared resources, such as common data areas. Event flags are used to synchronize the intertask activities. Mailboxes, pipes, and message queues are used to send messages among tasks.
