+The Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult

+.SH NAME
+sem_destroy
+\(em destroy an unnamed semaphore
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.LP
+.nf
+#include <semaphore.h>
+.P
+int sem_destroy(sem_t *\fIsem\fP);
+.fi
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+\fIsem_destroy\fR()
+function shall destroy the unnamed semaphore indicated by
+.IR sem .
+Only a semaphore that was created using
+\fIsem_init\fR()
+may be destroyed using
+\fIsem_destroy\fR();
+the effect of calling
+\fIsem_destroy\fR()
+with a named semaphore is undefined. The effect of subsequent use of
+the semaphore
+.IR sem
+is undefined until
+.IR sem
+is reinitialized by another call to
+\fIsem_init\fR().
+.P
+It is safe to destroy an initialized semaphore upon which no threads
+are currently blocked. The effect of destroying a semaphore upon which
+other threads are currently blocked is undefined.
+.SH "RETURN VALUE"
+Upon successful completion, a value of zero shall be returned. Otherwise,
+a value of \-1 shall be returned and
+.IR errno
+set to indicate the error.
+.SH ERRORS
+The
+\fIsem_destroy\fR()
+function may fail if:
+.TP
+.BR EINVAL
+The
+.IR sem
+argument is not a valid semaphore.
+.TP
+.BR EBUSY
+There are currently processes blocked on the semaphore.
