Actually, I suspect we'd want to change __ATOMIC_ACQ_REL to __ATOMIC_SEQ_CST everywhere, because we want total order.

Thanks,

In doc/uatomic-api.md, we document:

"```c
type uatomic_cmpxchg(type *addr, type old, type new);
```

An atomic read-modify-write operation that performs this
sequence of operations atomically: check if `addr` contains `old`.
If true, then replace the content of `addr` by `new`. Return the
value previously contained by `addr`. This function implies a full
memory barrier before and after the atomic operation."

This would map to a "__ATOMIC_ACQ_REL" semantic on cmpxchg failure
rather than __ATOMIC_CONSUME".

While OK for the general case, I would recommend that we immediately implement something more efficient on x86 32/64 which takes into account that __ATOMIC_ACQ_REL atomic operations are implemented with LOCK prefixed atomic ops, which imply the barrier already, leaving the before/after_uatomic_*() as no-ops.

Thanks,

Mathieu
