Subpackage Descriptions
complete This is the libatomic_ops-standard metapackage. It pulls in all subpackages of libatomic_ops-standard.
primary This package provides semi-portable access to hardware provided atomic memory operations. These might allow you to write code: - That does more interesting things in signal handlers - Makes more effective use of multiprocessors by allowing you to write clever lock-free code. Note that such code is very difficult to get right, and will unavoidably be less portable than lock-based code. It is also not always faster than lock-based code. But it may occasionally be a large performance win - To experiment with new and much better thread programming paradigms.
dev This is the developer subpackage of the libatomic_ops-standard port. It may contain headers, pc files, static and PIC libraries and SO links.
docs This is the documents subpackage of the libatomic_ops-standard port.
