To do that, we split each counter into two 32b values of which we reserve the MSB of each to represent an overflow from the lower-order half to the higher-order half. In the common case, the state is (higher-order / lower-order half, and . is basically concatenation of the bits): 0.h / 0.l = h.l When we add a value of x that overflows (i.e., 0.l + x == 1.L), we run the following steps S1-S4 (the values these represent are on the right-hand side): S1: 0.h / 1.L == (h+1).L S2: 1.(h+1) / 1.L == (h+1).L S3: 1.(h+1) / 0.L == (h+1).L S4: 0.(h+1) / 0.L == (h+1).L If the LSB of the higher-order half is set, readers will ignore the overflow bit in the lower-order half. To get an atomic snapshot in load operations, we exploit that the higher-order half is monotonically increasing; if we load a value V from it, then read the lower-order half, and then read the higher-order half again and see the same value V, we know that both halves have existed in the sequence of values the full counter had. This is similar to the validated reads in the time-based STMs in GCC's libitm (e.g., method_ml_wt). One benefit of this scheme is that this makes load operations obstruction-free because unlike if we would just lock the counter, readers can almost always interpret a snapshot of each halves. Readers can be forced to read a new snapshot when the read is concurrent with an overflow. However, overflows will happen infrequently, so load operations are practically lock-free. */ uint64_t __atomic_wide_counter_fetch_add_relaxed (__atomic_wide_counter *c, unsigned int op) { /* S1.

All candidate store operations have release MO. If we read from S2 in the first load, then we will see the value of S1 on the next load (because we synchronize with S2), or a value later in modification order. We correctly ignore the lower-half's overflow bit in this case.
