c# - Guaranteed semaphore order?

Question

The documentation for the .NET Semaphore class states that:

There is no guaranteed order, such as FIFO or LIFO, in which blocked threads enter the semaphore.

In this case, if I want a guaranteed order (either FIFO or LIFO), what are my options? Is this something that just isn't easily possible? Would I have to write my own Semaphore? I assume that would be pretty advanced?

Thanks,

Steve

See this:

The FifoSemaphore works exactly like a normal Semaphore but also guarantees that tokens are served out to acquirers in the order that they manage to acquire the internal lock. The usage of a FifoSemaphore is identical to a Semaphore.
