because here it is possible the thread write change mem...

unsigned32bits   v=0, mem=0;

thread write:
/*atomic means if it is lock not write ...*/
 atomic_move(&mem, 7);
 /* wait until v is 0 */
 Wait(&v, 0);
 change(buffer, len)
 atomic_move(&mem, 0);


 threads read:
 /* wait until mem is 0 if is 0 lock mem
   and atomic increment v
   unlock mem
*/
 WaitIncrement(&mem, &v); /* if v==-1 seg fault :) */
 leggi(buffer, len)
 atomic--(&v);
