atomic_xor (sm5 - asm)

Atomic bitwise XOR to memory.

atomic_xor dest, dstAddress[.swizzle], src0[.select_component]
Item Description
dest
[in] The components to XOR with src0. This value must be an unordered access view (UAV) (u#). In the compute shader it can also be thread group shared memory (g#).
dstAddress
[in] The memory address.
src0
[in] The components to XOR with dest.

Remarks

This instruction performs a single component 32-bit bitwise XOR of operand src0 into dest at 32-bit per component address dstAddress, performed atomically.

The number of components taken from the address is determined by the dimensionality of dest u# or g#.

If dest is a u#, it can be declared as raw, typed or structured. If typed, it must be declared as UINT/SINT with the bound resource format being R32_UINT/_SINT.

If dest is g#, it must be declared as raw or structured.

Nothing is returned to the shader.

If the shader invocation is inactive, for example if the pixel has been discarded earlier in its execution, or if a pixel/sample invocation only exists to serve as a helper to a real pixel/sample for derivatives, this instruction does not alter the dest memory at all (silently).

Out of bounds addressing on u# causes nothing to be written to memory, except if the u# is structured, and byte offset into the struct (second component of the address) is causing the out of bounds access, then the entire contents of the UAV become undefined.

Out of bounds addressing on g# (the bounds of that particular g#, as opposed to all shared memory) causes the entire contents of all shared memory to become undefined.

This instruction applies to the following shader stages:

Vertex Hull Domain Geometry Pixel Compute
X X

Because UAVs are available at all shader stages for Direct3D 11.1, this instruction applies to all shader stages for the Direct3D 11.1 runtime, which is available starting with Windows 8.
