Acquire and Release Semantics
Generally speaking, in lock-free programming, there are two ways in which threads can manipulate shared memory: They can compete with each other for a resource, or they can pass information co-operatively from one thread to another. Acquire and release semantics are crucial for the latter: reliable passing of information between threads. In fact, I would venture to guess that incorrect or missing
An Introduction to Lock-Free Programming
Lock-free programming is a challenge, not just because of the complexity of the task itself, but because of how difficult it can be to penetrate the subject in the first place. I was fortunate in that my first introduction to lock-free (also known as lockless) programming was Bruce Dawson’s excellent and comprehensive white paper, Lockless Programming Considerations. And like many, I’ve had the oc
Atomic vs. Non-Atomic Operations
Much has already been written about atomic operations on the web, usually with a focus on atomic read-modify-write (RMW) operations. However, those aren’t the only kinds of atomic operations. There are also atomic loads and stores, which are equally important. In this post, I’ll compare atomic loads and stores to their non-atomic counterparts at both the processor level and the C/C++ language leve
