 === Importing Semaphore External Handles
 
-Applications can import a semaphore payload into an existing semaphore using
-an external semaphore handle.
-The effects of the import operation will be either temporary or permanent,
-as specified by the application.
-If the import is temporary, the implementation must restore the semaphore to
-its prior permanent state after submitting the next semaphore wait
-operation.
-Performing a subsequent temporary import on a semaphore before performing a
-semaphore wait has no effect on this requirement; the next wait submitted on
-the semaphore must still restore its last permanent state.
-A permanent payload import behaves as if the target semaphore was destroyed,
-and a new semaphore was created with the same handle but the imported
-payload.
-Because importing a semaphore payload temporarily or permanently detaches
-the existing payload from a semaphore, similar usage restrictions to those
-applied to {clReleaseSemaphoreKHR} are applied to any command that imports a
-semaphore payload.
-Which of these import types is used is referred to as the import operation's
-permanence.
-Each handle type supports either one or both types of permanence.
-
-The implementation must perform the import operation by either referencing
-or copying the payload referred to by the specified external semaphore
-handle, depending on the handle's type.
-The import method used is referred to as the handle type's transference.
-When using handle types with reference transference, importing a payload to
-a semaphore adds the semaphore to the set of all semaphores sharing that
-payload.
-This set includes the semaphore from which the payload was exported.
-Semaphore signaling and waiting operations performed on any semaphore in the
-set must behave as if the set were a single semaphore.
-Importing a payload using handle types with copy transference creates a
-duplicate copy of the payload at the time of import, but makes no further
-reference to it.
-Semaphore signaling and waiting operations performed on the target of copy
-imports must not affect any other semaphore or payload.
-
-Export operations have the same transference as the specified handle type's
-import operations.
-Additionally, exporting a semaphore payload to a handle with copy
-transference has the same side effects on the source semaphore's payload as
-executing a semaphore wait operation.
-If the semaphore was using a temporarily imported payload, the semaphore's
-prior permanent payload will be restored.
