C atomic_exchange(volatile A* obj, C desired); | (1) | (since C11) |
C atomic_exchange_explicit(volatile A* obj, C desired,memory_order order); | (2) | (since C11) |
Atomically replaces the value pointed byobj withdesired and returns the valueobj held previously. The operation is read-modify-write operation. The first version orders memory accesses according tomemory_order_seq_cst, the second version orders memory accesses according toorder.
This is ageneric function defined for allatomic object typesA. The argument is pointer to a volatile atomic type to accept addresses of both non-volatile andvolatile (e.g. memory-mapped I/O) atomic objects, and volatile semantic is preserved when applying this operation to volatile atomic objects.C is the non-atomic type corresponding toA.
It is unspecified whether the name of a generic function is a macro or an identifier declared with external linkage. If a macro definition is suppressed in order to access an actual function (e.g. parenthesized like(atomic_exchange)(...)), or a program defines an external identifier with the name of a generic function, the behavior is undefined..
