PRIMITIVES FOR SOFTWARE TRANSACTIONAL MEMORY

摘要

Software transactional memory (STM) primitives are provided that allow the results of prior open calls to be used by subsequent open calls either as-is or through another STM primitive that consumes the results of the previous invocation. The STM primitives are configured to ensure that the address of a shadow copy representing a memory location will not changed across a wide range of operations and thereby enable re-use of the shadow copy.
