Just a quick note: you do not want sfence for write barriers on x64. x64's always complete writes…
Pseudonym73, are you sure? Wouldn't we see a lot of crashing software on AMD 64-bit CPU's if they …
In the first case, you want a store fence: In most Intel CPUs, writes are not reordered with othe…
It doesn't matter what version is Visual Studio. Afaik it is available only as 32-bit. If you use …

Are you compiling executable as 64-bit? If you compile executable as 32-bit, then even on 64-bit O…

I'm don't think there is better way for GCC to do just write barrier. Clang should support both of…

That is not a reasonable assumption. Some time I had need to compile code where compiler assumed e…
OSX has proper SSE intrinsic support. What you meant probably is that iOS doesn't support SSE. iOS…

Yeah, enums kind of suck in C. You really want them to be typed, but I think that wasn't introduc…
