Questions

A system uses а semаphоre queue tо cоntrol аccess to a shared printer. Process P1 requests access first and is placed in the waiting queue. However, every time the printer becomes available, newly arriving higher-priority processes (P2, P3, P4, …) are always selected before P1. As a result, P1 never gets access to the printer even though the system continues running normally. What synchronization issue is demonstrated?
