Expand description

Bit packing and pointer alignment utilities that make it easier to fit additional state into an Atom<T>

Structs

  • Align8
    A wrapper around an instance of T that is aligned on an eight byte boundary. This allows FlagPtr to steal the bottom three bits of pointers to instances of T without worrying about T’s alignment requirements.
  • FlagPtr
    A packed pointer type that steals some bits to make room for a 3-bit flag
  • FlagU32
    Bottom bit is the flag; you get 31 bits for val.
  • FlagU64
    Bottom bit is the flag; you get 63 bits for val.
