I have Started Cygserver Sucessfully and when i give ipcs command i am able to get the details. Under Semaphore it shows one semaphore id with following details:
semid semkey 65536 51397905 If i am able to create the semaphore, i.e., semget is returning the semid but i want to know why it is failing in semctl method?

As Corinna mentioned, error 22 == EINVAL, which is sometimes rendered as "Bad system call". For more details, see <http://cygwin.com/faq/faq.programming.html#faq.programming.ipc>.
