std::atomic_ref::notify_all - cppreference.com (original) (raw)
| void notify_all() const noexcept; | | (constexpr since C++26) | | ---------------------------------- | | ----------------------- |
Performs atomic notifying operations.
Unblocks all threads blocked in atomic waiting operations (i.e. wait()) on *_[ptr](../atomic%5Fref.html#ptr "cpp/atomic/atomic ref")_, if there are any; otherwise does nothing. This overload participates in overload resolution only if std::is_const_v<T> is false.
[edit] Notes
This form of change-detection is often more efficient than simple polling or pure spinlocks.
