Jacob S. Barrett updated GEODE-2493:
------------------------------------
Description:
Several platform specific locking and CAS operations are implemented in HostAsm
and related files. These are not portable and require porting efforts. They are
also not well tested. Converting the C++11 standards allows the compiler to
choose the code or instructions that optimize the behavior required. Most if
not all of the functions these files provide can be replaced with C++11
standard functions.
Some Examples:
On Solaris SPARC we have inline assembly.
On Solaris x86 we use Solaris specific runtime functions.
On Windows we use really old Win32 functions that have some non-standard
behavior.
