std::atomic_flag::notify_one

(since C++20)
void notify_one() noexcept;
void notify_one() volatile noexcept;

Performs atomic notifying operations.

If there is a thread blocked in atomic waiting operation (i.e. wait()) on *this, then unblocks at least one such thread; otherwise does nothing.

Return value

(none).

Notes

This form of change-detection is often more efficient than simple polling or pure spinlocks.
