I've got the following code:
#include<atomic>
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
struct Big{
int i;
int j;
int k[100];
};
int main(){
atomic<int> i;
cout<<i.load()<<endl;
i.store(20);
cout<<i.load()<<endl;
i.exchange(30);
cout<<i.load()<<endl;
atomic<Big> ab,expect,value;
ab.compare_exchange_weak(expect,value,memory_order_release,memory_order_relaxed);//error
return 0;
}
Well, atomic works well, but I wish to see if none-lock function of compare_exchange_weak could work for complex data structures. Compiled with --std=c++11 it gives me:
error: no matching member function for call to 'compare_exchange_weak'
ab.compare_exchange_weak(expect,value,memory_order_release,memory_order_relaxed);
~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
candidate function not viable: no known conversion from 'atomic<Big>' to 'Big &' for 1st argument
bool compare_exchange_weak(_Tp& __e, _Tp __d,
So my question:
Does std::atomic::compare_exchange_weak work with complex structures?
If intel cpu hardware CMPEXG only works within 64 bit length cache line, does structures larger than 8 bytes work with CMPEXG? Is it still atomic operation?
How to fix my program?
Thanks.
