The compiler supplies all of the intrinsics as described below.  This list of
 | 
						|
intrinsics roughly parallels the requirements of the C and C++ atomics
 | 
						|
proposals.  The C and C++ library implementations simply drop through to these
 | 
						|
intrinsics.  Anything the platform does not support in hardware, the compiler
 | 
						|
arranges for a (compiler-rt) library call to be made which will do the job with
 | 
						|
a mutex, and in this case ignoring the memory ordering parameter (effectively
 | 
						|
implementing <tt>memory_order_seq_cst</tt>).
 | 
						|
</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>
 | 
						|
Ultimate efficiency is preferred over run time error checking.  Undefined
 | 
						|
behavior is acceptable when the inputs do not conform as defined below.

Below are representative C++ implementations of all of the operations.  Their

purpose is to document the desired semantics of each operation, assuming

<tt>memory_order_seq_cst</tt>.  This is essentially the code that will be called

if the front end calls out to compiler-rt.
