ck_pr_fence_store3
Enforce partial ordering of store operations
Usage
#include <ck_pr.h>
void
ck_pr_fence_store(void);
void
ck_pr_fence_strict_store(void);
Library
Concurrency Kit (libck, -lck)
Overview
The ck_pr_fence_store() function enforces the ordering of any memory store, ck_pr_store() and atomic read-modify-write operations relative to the invocation of the function. 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. On architectures implementing CK_MD_PSO and CK_MD_RMO, a store fence is emitted. To force the unconditional emission of a store fence, use ck_pr_fence_strict_store().
Examples
#include <ck_pr.h>
static int a = 0;
static int b = 0;
static int c = 0;
void
function(void)
{
ck_pr_store_int(&a, 1);
/*
* Guarantee that the store to a is completed
* with respect to the stores of b and c.
*/
ck_pr_fence_store();
ck_pr_store_int(&b, 2);
ck_pr_store_int(&c, 2);
return;
}
