I am trying to perform an addition on a double atomically in a loop using a compare and exchange scheme with this function:
namespace my
{
template<typename value_type>
value_type atomic_add(std::atomic<value_type>& operand, value_type value_to_add)
{
value_type old = operand.load(std::memory_order_consume);
value_type desired = old + value_to_add;
while (!operand.compare_exchange_weak(old, desired, std::memory_order_release, std::memory_order_consume))
desired = old + value_to_add;
return desired;
}
}
This is used in my code like so:
[ size of containers = 62, scalar = 318.0, values in containers between 0.0 and 55.0, all values are of type double ]
for(size_t i = 0; i < container.size(); i++)
{
my::atomic_add<double>(Q, container2[i] - std::pow(container3[i], 2) / scalar);
}
The output is 0.57784502195324539
.
However, replacing all my_atomic with the +=
operator, and replace all std::atomic<double>
with double
gives 0.52something
, which is closer to what I was expecting.
Any idea why this is happening?
Thank you.
