using shared_ptr<T> as a value type. The implementation I'm thinking of uses hazard pointers (http://erdani.org/publications/cuj-2004-12.pdf) and double-wide-cas (cmpxchg16b on x86-64). So I have three questions for this list:
Athlon 64s (pre-dual core) do not have cmpxchg16b - how do you plan to get around that?
iirc, the x86_64 doesn't actually use a 64-bit virtual address space, but only 48-bit ... the remaining 16 bit could be used to store the tag ... best, tim -- tim@klingt.org http://tim.klingt.org Question: Then what is the purpose of this "experimental" music? Answer: No purposes. Sounds. John Cage
