revision 1.29
date: 2013/07/27 19:26:57; author: sampath; state: Exp; lines: +16 -8
Initialized sema_init and init_completion in open within if condition if(opened in write only mode) as the application level has calling open twice once in write and second in read only mode
removed declaring sem_post in close and declared at the end of read so as to allow another application to open afetr first application complete reading operation
note: care should be taken as open and close are called twice from same application
