30 * A handful of basic atomic operations.
31 * THESE ARE HERE FOR LEGACY REASONS ONLY. AVOID.
32 *
33 * PREFERRED ALTERNATIVES:
34 * - Use C++/C/pthread locks/mutexes whenever there is not a
35 * convincing reason to do otherwise. Note that very clever and
36 * complicated, but correct, lock-free code is often slower than
37 * using locks, especially where nontrivial data structures
38 * are involved.
39 * - C11 stdatomic.h.
40 * - Where supported, C++11 std::atomic<T> .
41 *
42 * PLEASE STOP READING HERE UNLESS YOU ARE TRYING TO UNDERSTAND
43 * OR UPDATE OLD CODE.
44 *
45 * The "acquire" and "release" terms can be defined intuitively in terms
46 * of the placement of memory barriers in a simple lock implementation:
47 * - wait until compare-and-swap(lock-is-free --> lock-is-held) succeeds
48 * - barrier
49 * - [do work]
50 * - barrier
51 * - store(lock-is-free)
52 * In very crude terms, the initial (acquire) barrier prevents any of the
53 * "work" from happening before the lock is held, and the later (release)
54 * barrier ensures that all of the work happens before the lock is released.
55 * (Think of cached writes, cache read-ahead, and instruction reordering
56 * around the CAS and store instructions.)
57 *
58 * The barriers must apply to both the compiler and the CPU. Note it is
59 * legal for instructions that occur before an "acquire" barrier to be
60 * moved down below it, and for instructions that occur after a "release"
61 * barrier to be moved up above it.
62 *
63 * The ARM-driven implementation we use here is short on subtlety,
64 * and actually requests a full barrier from the compiler and the CPU.
65 * The only difference between acquire and release is in whether they
66 * are issued before or after the atomic operation with which they
67 * are associated. To ease the transition to C/C++ atomic intrinsics,
68 * you should not rely on this, and instead assume that only the minimal
69 * acquire/release protection is provided.
70 *
71 * NOTE: all int32_t* values are expected to be aligned on 32-bit boundaries.
72 * If they are not, atomicity is not guaranteed.
