+This initial draft was to make some notes while reading marabos' atomics and locks,
+and somehow transmogrify key concepts, distilling yet and perhaps wrapping it into a case study of 
+some sort, perhaps `WTF::parking_lot` or my own lock-free linked-list, sadly, although it does not meet any standards of quality or 
+comprehension, here it is, anyway, otherwise it may never escape my drafts.

+Atomics, typically a compiler intrinsic, platform/hardware dependent(x86, risc-v, arm etc), OS dependent.
+typically at least a pointer size -- in rust a [`usize`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/primitive.usize.html)

 ## Usecases/Patterns
 - stop flag/locking primitive/aka naive mutex + busy wait
 - thread progress reporting
 - synchronization/barrier/fence etc
 - lazy initialization

 ## Orderings
 - Relaxed: total modification order
 - Release & Acquire: happens-before btw  thread A & B
+- AcqRel, SeqCst: 
+- *Consume
 
 > A happens-before relationship is formed when an acquire-load operation observes the result of a release-store operation. In this case, the store and everything before it, happened before the load and everything after it.
