CK_PR_FENCE_ATOMIC_ST... BSD Library Functions Manual CK_PR_FENCE_ATOMIC_ST...

NAME
     ck_pr_fence_atomic_store — enforce ordering of atomic read-modify-write
     operations to store operations

LIBRARY
     Concurrency Kit (libck, -lck)

SYNOPSIS
     #include <ck_pr.h>

     void
     ck_pr_fence_atomic_store(void);

     void
     ck_pr_fence_strict_atomic_store(void);

DESCRIPTION
     The ck_pr_fence_atomic_store() function enfores the ordering of any
     atomic read-modify-write operations relative to any load operations fol‐
     lowing the function invocation. This function always serve as an implicit
     compiler barrier. On architectures implementing CK_MD_TSO, this operation
     only serves as a compiler barrier and no fences are emitted. To force the
     unconditional emission of a fence, use ck_pr_fence_strict_atomic_store().

EXAMPLE
	   #include <ck_pr.h>

	   static int a = 0;
	   static int b = 0;

	   void
	   function(void)
	   {
		   int c;

		   ck_pr_fas_int(&a, 1);

		   /*
		    * Guarantee that the update to a is completed
		    * with respect to the store into the value pointed
		    * to by b.
		    */
		   ck_pr_fence_atomic_store();
		   c = ck_pr_store_int(&b, 2);

		   return;
	   }

RETURN VALUES
     This function has no return value.
