Hi David, Fancy stuffs! Wondering how much magic was going on in implementing this, I saw that atomicModifyIORef2Native misses the haddock marker '|' in the source; thus your extensive doc comment doesn't show up on hackage. Cheers, Tom On 10/03/2023 03:01, David Feuer wrote:
I just put together a new package, atomic-modify-general, for generalizations of the `atomicModifyIORef` operation. In particular:
1. Versions that allow a result of an arbitrary type (not necessarily a pair), where the caller passes in an extraction function. These work with `Array` and `SmallArray` from `primitive` as well as `IORef`. 2. A version that works with record types (not just pairs) whose first field is the new value to install in the `IORef`. This uses implementation details of the `atomicModifyMutVar#` primop as well as GHC's heap object layout to achieve better performance.
Please try it out and let me know how it goes, and what extras you may want!
