what is the issue there?
i still don't get what the standard mean by "generic function" in the
c11 atomics specs
i thought the compiler will do the hard work (providing __builtin_foo
for every atomic foo) and libc just macro wraps those
it is not clear if the atomic functions are reserved for external
linkage (currently the text seems to require external linkage for them
but i don't know how could that work) or if you can take the address
of them
and the standard does not seem to permit the use of atomic functions
in signal handlers which would be useful
