Module buf 

Arrays of atomic words for containers whose readers do not lock (lists, and dicts read through their seqlock). Every slot is an AtomicU64, so a reader racing a writer sees some value that was stored there, never a torn one. A writer that outgrows a buffer copies it into a new one, publishes the new pointer with Release, and hands the old one to release, which frees it only once no other thread can be reading it.

Structs

WordBuf

A capacity word followed by cap atomic slots.

Functions

release^⚠

Disposes of a buffer that was just replaced. With local access no other thread can be reading it, so it is freed now; otherwise the collector frees it at the next stop-the-world.
