Summarizing various conversations I've seen:
The Go Memory Model says that "synchronization primitives" are in the sync and
sync/atomic packages. It also says that a "synchronization mechanism"
establishes relative ordering as observed by another goroutine. In other
words, Go's atomics are full memory barriers/fences which guarantee sequential
consistency for any number of goroutines.

Nope, as I understand it atomic load and store are not memory fencing
operations.
