Subject: [PATCH v8 5/9] rust: sync: atomic: Add atomic {cmp,}xchg operations
Date: Fri, 18 Jul 2025 20:08:23 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250719030827.61357-6-boqun.feng@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250719030827.61357-1-boqun.feng@gmail.com>
xchg() and cmpxchg() are basic operations on atomic. Provide these based
on C APIs.
Note that cmpxchg() use the similar function signature as
compare_exchange() in Rust std: returning a `Result`, `Ok(old)` means
the operation succeeds and `Err(old)` means the operation fails.
