CK_PR_FENCE_ATOMIC_LO... BSD Library Functions Manual CK_PR_FENCE_ATOMIC_LO...

NAME
     ck_pr_fence_atomic_load — enforce ordering of atomic read-modify-write
     operations to load operations

LIBRARY
     Concurrency Kit (libck, -lck)

SYNOPSIS
     #include <ck_pr.h>

     void
     ck_pr_fence_atomic_load(void);

     void
     ck_pr_fence_strict_atomic_load(void);

DESCRIPTION
     The ck_pr_fence_atomic_load() function enfores the ordering of any atomic
     read-modify-write operations relative to any load operations following
     the function invocation. This function always serve as an implicit com‐
     piler 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_load().

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 load of *b.
		    */
		   ck_pr_fence_atomic_load();
		   c = ck_pr_load_int(&b);

		   return;
	   }

RETURN VALUES
     This function has no return value.
