 *                   Style sheet for the W3C specifications                   *
 *
 * Special classes handled by this style sheet include:
 *
 * Indices
 *   - .toc for the Table of Contents (<ol class="toc">)
 *     + <span class="secno"> for the section numbers
 *   - #toc for the Table of Contents (<nav id="toc">)
 *   - ul.index for Indices (<a href="#ref">term</a><span>, in §N.M</span>)
 *   - table.index for Index Tables (e.g. for properties or elements)
 *
 * Structural Markup
 *   - table.data for general data tables
 *     -> use 'scope' attribute, <colgroup>, <thead>, and <tbody> for best results !
 *     -> use <table class='complex data'> for extra-complex tables
 *     -> use <td class='long'> for paragraph-length cell content
 *     -> use <td class='pre'> when manual line breaks/indentation would help readability
 *   - dl.switch for switch statements
 *   - ol.algorithm for algorithms (helps to visualize nesting)
 *   - .figure and .caption (HTML4) and figure and figcaption (HTML5)
 *     -> .sidefigure for right-floated figures
 *   - ins/del
 *
 * Code
 *   - pre and code
 *
 * Special Sections
 *   - .note       for informative notes             (div, p, span, aside, details)
 *   - .example    for informative examples          (div, p, pre, span)
 *   - .issue      for issues                        (div, p, span)
 *   - .assertion  for assertions                    (div, p, span)
 *   - .advisement for loud normative statements     (div, p, strong)
 *   - .annoying-warning for spec obsoletion notices (div, aside, details)
 *
 * Definition Boxes
 *   - pre.def   for WebIDL definitions
 *   - table.def for tables that define other entities (e.g. CSS properties)
 *   - dl.def    for definition lists that define other entitles (e.g. HTML elements)
 *
 * Numbering
 *   - .secno for section numbers in .toc and headings (<span class='secno'>3.2</span>)
 *   - .marker for source-inserted example/figure/issue numbers (<span class='marker'>Issue 4</span>)
 *   - ::before styled for CSS-generated issue/example/figure numbers:
 *     -> Documents wishing to use this only need to add
 *        figcaption::before,
 *        .caption::before { content: "Figure "  counter(figure) " ";  }
 *        .example::before { content: "Example " counter(example) " "; }
 *        .issue::before   { content: "Issue "   counter(issue) " ";   }
 *
 * Header Stuff (ignore, just don't conflict with these classes)
 *   - .head for the header
 *   - .copyright for the copyright
 *
 * Miscellaneous
 *   - .overlarge for things that should be as wide as possible, even if
 *     that overflows the body text area. This can be used on an item or
 *     on its container, depending on the effect desired.
 *     Note that this styling basically doesn't help at all when printing,
 *     since A4 paper isn't much wider than the max-width here.
 *     It's better to design things to fit into a narrower measure if possible.
 *   - js-added ToC jump links (see fixup.js)

   <p>Memory order consume as specified in C++11 hasn’t been implemented by any
compiler. The main reason for this shortcoming is that the specification creates
a fundamental mismatch between the model of "dependency" at the C++ source code
level and "dependency" at the ISA-specific assembly level.</p>
   <p>Programmers targeting large systems have been using "consume" under different
names since at least the mid-90’s. As hardware evolved, what used to be an
esoteric memory detail of large systems has become commonplace. For example,
Linux gained support for Read Copy Update <a data-link-type="biblio" href="#biblio-rcu">[RCU]</a> in October 2002 and usage has
steadily increased since then <a data-link-type="biblio" href="#biblio-rcuusage">[RCUUsage]</a>. Memory order consume is the key to
RCU’s scalability.</p>
   <p>This proposal continues work from:</p>
   <ol>
    <li data-md="">
     <p>Towards Implementation and Use of <code class="highlight"><span class="n">memory</span> <span class="n">order</span> <span class="n">consume</span></code> <a data-link-type="biblio" href="#biblio-p0098r1">[p0098R1]</a> lists
 a plethora of manners in which C++ could expose consume. In particular,
 section 7.11 is the root of the current proposal.</p>
    <li data-md="">
     <p>Marking memory order consume Dependency Chains <a data-link-type="biblio" href="#biblio-p0462r1">[p0462r1]</a> expands on the
 previous paper. Of particular interest is section 3.2 which proposes <code class="highlight"><span class="n">depending_ptr</span></code>, which the current proposal’s API derives from.</p>
    <li data-md="">
     <p>Proposal for New memory order consume Definition <a data-link-type="biblio" href="#biblio-p0190r3">[p0190r3]</a> has
 comprehensive details on each operation which RCU supports. That list was
 critical in crafting the precise semantics which the current proposal has.</p>
   </ol>
   <p>The current proposal is different from prior proposals in that it contains a
single proposed API, which is known to work for at least one code base. Indeed,
it is based on work in WebKit <a data-link-type="biblio" href="#biblio-atomics">[Atomics]</a> which has been successfully using
consume memory ordering in C++ on ARM platforms for over a year.</p>
   <p>The WebKit API was written by low-level compiler experts for their own use, with
limited applicability compared to RCU, and isn’t necessarily user-friendly. The
current proposal therefore differs as follows:</p>
   <ul>
    <li data-md="">
     <p>Fewer sharp edges than the WebKit one; and</p>
    <li data-md="">
     <p>Attempt to support more usecases as documented by <a data-link-type="biblio" href="#biblio-p0462r1">[p0462r1]</a></p>
   </ul>
   <h2 class="heading settled" data-level="2" id="wat"><span class="secno">2. </span><span class="content">What is <code class="highlight"><span class="n">consume</span></code>?</span><a class="self-link" href="#wat"></a></h2>
   <p>Consume exposes low-level architecture dependencies as available in weak memory
multicore systems. For example, it maps to what ARM calls the "address
dependency rule" as explained in section 6.3 of the ARM Barrier Litmus Tests and
Cookbook <a data-link-type="biblio" href="#biblio-litmus">[Litmus]</a>. POWER has a similar ISA feature. On weak memory ISAs,
consume allows writing release / acquire style code, where the reader side
doesn’t need extra fences. Ordering is guaranteed by creating dependencies on
the reader side between the released location and the subsequent reads that
should be observed to happen after that location’s value was written by the
writer. A "dependency" at the ISA level means that computation of the value of
the address of subsequent loads depend on the value loaded from the release
location.</p>
   <p>It is always valid for an implementation to "promote" consume to acquire, but in
most cases this adds an extra fence.</p>
   <p>Despite being used extensively in multiple systems, crafting a consume API which
is easy to use correctly remains a difficult task because it requires very
precise assembly generation. To maintain correctness, current uses rely on:</p>
   <ul>
    <li data-md="">
     <p>A gentleperson’s agreement with compiler authors to avoid breaking code;</p>
    <li data-md="">
     <p>Human inspection of compiled code disassembly;</p>
    <li data-md="">
     <p>Extensive testing;</p>
    <li data-md="">
     <p>Judicious application of inline assembly; and</p>
    <li data-md="">
     <p>Luck 🍀.</p>
   </ul>
   <p>This proposal is no different, except that it offloads this burden on the
compiler and standard library authors. These people are in a much better
position to ensure correctness: they rely on more engineering than luck to
maintain the language’s correctness because it’s literally the main purpose of
their software.</p>

   <blockquote>
     ❡7 An evaluation A carries a dependency to an evaluation B if 
    <ol>
     <li>
      the value of A is used as an operand of B, unless: 
      <ol>
       <li>B is an invocation of any specialization of <code class="highlight"><span class="n">std</span><span class="o">:</span><span class="o">:</span><span class="n">kill_dependency</span></code>, or 
       <li>A is the left operand of a built-in logical AND <code class="highlight"><span class="o">&amp;</span><span class="o">&amp;</span></code> or logical OR <code class="highlight"><span class="o">|</span><span class="o">|</span></code> operator, or 
       <li>A is the left operand of a conditional <code class="highlight"><span class="o">?</span><span class="o">:</span></code> operator, or 
       <li>A is the left operand of the built-in comma <code class="highlight"><span class="p">,</span></code> operator; or 
      </ol>
     <li>A writes a scalar object or bit-field M, B reads the value written by A from M, and A is sequenced before B, or 
     <li>for some evaluation X, A carries a dependency to X, and X carries a dependency to B. 
    </ol>
    <p>[ Note: “Carries a dependency to” is a subset of “is sequenced before”, and
      is similarly strictly intra-thread. — end note ]</p>
    <p>❡8 An evaluation A is dependency-ordered before an evaluation B if</p>
    <ol>
     <li>A performs a release operation on an atomic object M, and, in another
        thread, B performs a consume operation on M and reads a value written
        by any side effect in the release sequence headed by A, or 
     <li>for some evaluation X, A is dependency-ordered before X and X carries
        a dependency to B. 
    </ol>
    <p>[ Note: The relation “is dependency-ordered before” is analogous to
      “synchronizes with”, but uses release/consume in place of release/acquire.
      — end note ]</p>
   </blockquote>
   <p>The above wording and subsequent uses of it terms need to be updated.</p>
   <h2 class="heading settled" data-level="4" id="other"><span class="secno">4. </span><span class="content">Other considerations</span><a class="self-link" href="#other"></a></h2>
   <p>The following can also be considered as part of this proposal:</p>
   <ol>
    <li data-md="">
     <p>Deprecate passing <code class="highlight"><span class="n">memory_order_consume</span></code> to the existing variable functions.</p>
    <li data-md="">
     <p>Make atomic ordering a template parameter tag instead of a variable. This
 would be a huge change, maybe we should do it separately, but it would
 simplify this proposal if we had it.</p>
    <li data-md="">
     <p>Deprecate attribute <code class="highlight"><span class="p">[</span><span class="p">[</span><span class="n">carries_dependency</span><span class="p">]</span><span class="p">]</span></code>.</p>
    <li data-md="">
     <p>C compatibility.</p>
   </ol>
   <p>The author is happy to add these to the current proposal if SG1 thinks it would
be useful to explore.</p>
   <h2 class="heading settled" data-level="5" id="future"><span class="secno">5. </span><span class="content">Future work</span><a class="self-link" href="#future"></a></h2>
   <p>The current proposal has a rough API, very rough wording, and a small number of
tests. More work needs to go towards these items. Furthermore, the following
operations need to be added:</p>
   <ul>
    <li data-md="">
     <p>xchg</p>
    <li data-md="">
     <p>cmpxchg</p>
    <li data-md="">
     <p>read-modify-write</p>
    <li data-md="">
     <p>dependent member pointers, returning <code class="highlight"><span class="o">&amp;</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">ptr1</span><span class="o">-</span><span class="o">></span><span class="o">*</span><span class="n">ptr2</span><span class="p">)</span></code></p>
   </ul>
   <p>It seems like the easiest way to go about is to try out the API in a
from-scratch C++ codebase. An obvious candidate would be a user-space RCU
implementation in C++ using this API.</p>
   <p>It is also worth considering whether consumable types should be restricted
somehow. <code class="highlight"><span class="n">atomic</span></code> requires trivially-copyable types, but doesn’t restrict the
size of <code class="highlight"><span class="n">T</span></code>. Should consume require the same restriction? Is it useful to
consume very large values? In the author’s experience it isn’t, but it could be
useful in other fields, and at a minimum what qualifies as "large" is
ISA-dependent.</p>
   <p>Generated assembly needs to be inspected on multiple implementations to make
sure various compilers and ISAs can support the proposed design. Already the
sample implementation has been observed spilling dependencies to the stack on
ARM64 using GCC, which happens to be valid but might be brittle.</p>

   <p>The Committee’s SG1 sub-group has had many lengthy discussions about memory
order consume, and how to fix it. It took many failed attempts to come to this
solution. In particular, the following people were tremendously helpful in
reviewing this paper: Hans Boehm, Olivier Giroux, Paul McKenney, Robin Morisset,
Tim Northover, Will Deacon. Filip Pizło contributed substantially to the WebKit
implementation and usage of consume, including the first valuable usecase which
I saw as a perfect excuse to try out a consume solution that I had in mind.</p>
