The new version of ThreadSanitizer +based on compiler instrumentation understands atomic operations out of the box, +so normally you don't need the annotations. +If you still think you do, please consider writing a comment at http://crbug.com/349861 + One header and one source file (dynamic_annotations.h and dynamic_annotations.c) in this directory define runtime macros useful for annotating synchronization utilities and benign data races so data race detectors can handle Chromium code |
