Thanks. Interesting.
We had a version like your patch. But this is only half the work. Example:
state = pg_atomic_read_u32(&buf->state);
if ((state & BUF_REFCOUNT_MASK) == 0
&& (state & BUF_USAGECOUNT_MASK) == 0)
After the first command somebody can change buf->state and local state not
actual.
In this embodiment, there is no significant difference between the two
patches. For honest work will need used the CAS for all IF statement.
Thanks! Hope for understanding. ^_^
