However, there is a sys5.c with some semaphore stuff in it.  Not how the code gets from the sigcall entry to that file, maybe there's a CB-specific syscall aggregator like the sys3b systemcall for 3B20-specific stuff.  It had never actually occurred to me that the semaphores in SVR1 weren't the ones from CB-UNIX, I thought they just forklifted all the IPC into 4.0 from CB.  That then means the semaphores that carried through in System V originated at least in UNIX/TS 4.0, but not by way of CB.  Minor trivia, but that's news to me.  Maybe the sysV modification request logs can shed some light, I remember seeing several IPC mentions in there.

describes 'EVENT:O(2L), event - semaphore operations',
event() is system call 63 in cbunix6.pdf sysent

USG UNIX 4.0 and 4.1 IPC were not the same:
