If multiple threads of execution access the same std::shared_ptr object without synchronization and any of those accesses uses a non-const member function of shared_ptr then a data race will occur unless all such access is performed through these functions, which are overloads of the corresponding atomic access functions (std::atomic_load, std::atomic_store, etc.)

Note that the control block of a shared_ptr is thread-safe: different std::shared_ptr objects can be accessed using mutable operations, such as operator= or reset, simultaneously by multiple threads, even when these instances are copies, and share the same control block internally.

1) Determines whether atomic access to the shared pointer pointed-to by p is lock-free.

2) Equivalent to atomic_load_explicit(p, std::memory_order_seq_cst)

3) Returns the shared pointer pointed-to by p. As with the non-specialized std::atomic_load_explicit, mo cannot be std::memory_order_release or std::memory_order_acq_rel

4) Equivalent to atomic_store_explicit(p, r, memory_order_seq_cst)

5) Swaps the shared pointers p and r, effectively executing p->swap(r). As with the non-specialized std::atomic_store_explicit, mo cannot be std::memory_order_acquire or std::memory_order_acq_rel

6) Equivalent to atomic_exchange_explicit(p, r, memory_order_seq_cst)

7) Swaps the shared pointers p and r, effectively executing p->swap(r) and returns a copy of the shared pointer formerly pointed-to by p

8) Equivalent to atomic_compare_exchange_weak_explicit(p, expected, desired, std::memory_order_seq_cst, std::memory_order_seq_cst)

9) Equivalent to atomic_compare_exchange_strong_explicit(p, expected, desired, std::memory_order_seq_cst, std::memory_order_seq_cst)

10) Compares the shared pointers pointed-to by p and expected. If they are equivalent (share ownership of the same pointer and refer to the same pointer), assigns desired into *p using the memory ordering constraints specified by success and returns true. If they are not equivalent, assigns *p into *expected using the memory ordering constraints specified by failure and returns false.

11) Same as 10), but may fail spuriously.

All these functions invoke undefined behavior if p is a null pointer.

Parameters

p, expected	-	a pointer to a std::shared_ptr
r, desired	-	a std::shared_ptr
mo, success, failure	-	memory ordering selectors of type std::memory_order

Exceptions

These functions do not throw exceptions.

Return value

1) true if atomic access is implemented using lock-free instructions

2,3) A copy of the pointed-to shared pointer.

4,5) (none)

6,7) A copy of the formerly pointed-to shared pointer

8,9,10,11) true if the shared pointers were equivalent and the exchange was performed, false otherwise.
