std::atomic_flag::wait
| (since C++20) | ||
void wait( bool old,
std::memory_order order = std::memory_order::seq_cst ) const noexcept; |
||
void wait( bool old,
std::memory_order order = std::memory_order::seq_cst ) const volatile noexcept; |
Performs atomic waiting operations. Behaves as if it repeatedly performs the following steps:
- Compare
this->test(order)with that ofold.- If those are equal, then blocks until
*thisis notified bynotify_one()ornotify_all(), or the thread is unblocked spuriously. - Otherwise, returns.
- If those are equal, then blocks until
These functions are guaranteed to return only if value has changed, even if underlying implementation unblocks spuriously.
Parameters
| old | - | the value to check the atomic_flag's object no longer contains |
| order | - | the memory synchronization ordering for this operation: must not be std::memory_order::release or std::memory_order::acq_rel |
Return value
(none).
Notes
This form of change-detection is often more efficient than simple polling or pure spinlocks.
Due to the ABA problem, transient changes from old to another value and back to old might be missed, and not unblock.
