.Sh NAME
.Nm ck_pr
.Nd concurrency primitives interface
.Sh LIBRARY
Concurrency Kit (libck, \-lck)
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.In ck_pr.h
.Sh DESCRIPTION
ck_pr.h provides an interface to volatile atomic instructions,
memory barriers and busy-wait facilities as provided by the
underlying processor. The presence of an atomic operation
is detected by the presence of a corresponding CK_F_PR macro.
For example, the availability of
.Xr ck_pr_add_16 3
would be determined by the presence of CK_F_PR_ADD_16.

Concurrency Kit (libck, \-lck)
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.In ck_pr.h
.Ft void
.Fn ck_pr_fence_load void
.Ft void
.Fn ck_pr_fence_strict_load void
.Sh DESCRIPTION
This function will enforce the ordering of any memory load
and
.Fn ck_pr_load 3
operations relative to the invocation of the function. Any
store operations that were committed on remote processors
and received by the calling processor before the invocation of
.Fn ck_pr_fence_load
will also be made visible only after a call to
.Fn ck_pr_fence_load .
This function will always serve as an implicit compiler barrier.
On architectures with CK_MD_TSO or CK_MD_PSO specified (total store ordering
and partial store ordering respectively), this operation will only serve
as a compiler barrier and no fence instructions will be emitted. To
force the unconditional emission of a load fence, use
.Fn ck_pr_fence_strict_load .
Architectures implementing CK_MD_RMO will always emit a load fence.
.Sh EXAMPLE
.Bd -literal -offset indent
#include <ck_pr.h>
static unsigned int a;
static unsigned int b;
void
function(void)
{
unsigned int snapshot_a, snapshot_b;
snapshot_a = ck_pr_load_uint(&a);
/*
* Guarantee that the load from "a" completes
* before the load from "b".
*/
ck_pr_fence_load();

.Sh DESCRIPTION
The

emits necessary fences for pure data-dependent loads. It currently only serves as a compiler
barrier for Concurrency Kit's supported platforms. Unless you're on architecture
which re-orders data-dependent loads (such as the defunct Alpha), this function is unnecessary.
