Module core.atomic
The atomic module provides basic support for lock-free concurrent programming.
Functions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
atomicFence
|
Inserts a full load/store memory fence (on platforms that need it). This ensures that all loads and stores before a call to this function are executed before any loads and stores after the call. |
atomicLoad
|
Loads 'val' from memory and returns it. The memory barrier specified
by 'ms' is applied to the operation, which is fully sequenced by
default.
|
atomicOp
|
Performs the binary operation 'op' on val using 'mod' as the modifier.
|
atomicStore
|
Writes 'newval' into 'val'. The memory barrier specified by 'ms' is
applied to the operation, which is fully sequenced by default.
|
cas
|
Stores 'writeThis' to the memory referenced by 'here' if the value
referenced by 'here' is equal to 'ifThis'. This operation is both
lock-free and atomic.
|
Enums
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
MemoryOrder
|
Specifies the memory ordering semantics of an atomic operation. |
