I suppose you are right,
C program use appropriate header files that provide inline functions for
atomic. Same are "flavor-architecture specific", providing different
algorithms (with some sub-archs supported by Kernel tricks) to allow for
atomicness. When compiling an so library it can use the appropriate
header file (e.g. to do Futex).
Seemingly, to take advantage from this we could use libc to use Futex
("pthread_mutex()"). But for static atomic functions the sub-arch needs
to be known when compiling.
