Proposition for _set_atomic we store temporary NULL to the atomic_ptr struct to request an exclusive access to the data (this looks like a lock and other operations need to handle NULL) :
void shared_ptr_set_atomic(ptr a, atomic_ptr *ptr)
{
// Get exclusive access to the data
p = atomic_load(ptr);
do {
if (p == NULL) {
// TODO: exponential backoff
p = atomic_load(ptr);
continue;
}
} while (!atomic_compare_exchange_weak(ptr, &p, NULL));
// p has exclusive access to the pointer
p->data->cpt ++;
a->data = p->data;
atomic_exchange (ptr, p);
}
This prevents using NULL which obliges atomic shared pointer to point to a created object...
Other alternative solution is to use the bit 0 to mark the pointer as being updated, preventing other from using it (TBC only clear):
void shared_ptr_set_atomic(ptr a, atomic_ptr *ptr)
{
// Get exclusive access to the data
p = atomic_load(ptr);
do {
if ( (p&1) != 0) {
// TODO: exponential backoff
p = atomic_load(ptr);
continue;
}
} while (!atomic_compare_exchange_weak(ptr, &p, p|1));
// Exclusive access (kind of lock).
p->data->cpt ++;
a->data = p->data;
atomic_set (ptr, p);
}
Other implementation seems to have it hard to be lock-free: cf. llvm-mirror/libcxx@5fec82d
