Package core.alloc.atomic

AtomicAllocator wraps another allocator in a mutex, ensuring that every allocation is thread-safe. This is not needed for the general purpose heap allocator, as that already has a thread-safe implementation.

AtomicAllocator

AtomicAllocator :: struct {
    a: Allocator
    m: Mutex
}

Stores internal details used by the atomic allocator.

Simply the wrapped allocator and the mutex.

make

make :: (a: Allocator) -> AtomicAllocator

Creates a new AtomicAllocator over an existing allocator.

make_allocator

make_allocator :: (atomic: &AtomicAllocator) -> Allocator

Makes an allocator out of the atomic allocator state.
