Remarks

The number in the name of each function specifies the bit size of the arguments.

On ARM platforms, use the intrinsics with _acq and _rel suffixes if you need acquire and release semantics, such as at the beginning and end of a critical section. The ARM intrinsics with an _nf ("no fence") suffix don't act as a memory barrier.

The intrinsics with an _np ("no prefetch") suffix prevent a possible prefetch operation from being inserted by the compiler.

On Intel platforms that support Hardware Lock Elision (HLE) instructions, the intrinsics with _HLEAcquire and _HLERelease suffixes include a hint to the processor that can accelerate performance by eliminating a lock write step in hardware. If these intrinsics are called on platforms that don't support HLE, the hint is ignored.

Example

// _InterlockedOr.cpp
#include <stdio.h>
#include <intrin.h>

#pragma intrinsic(_InterlockedOr)

int main()
{
        long data1 = 0xFF00FF00;
        long data2 = 0x00FFFF00;
        long retval;
        retval = _InterlockedOr(&data1, data2);
        printf_s("0x%x 0x%x 0x%x", data1, data2, retval);
}
0xffffff00 0xffff00 0xff00ff00
