Types of Synchronization & Ordering Constraints
Explore the main types of synchronization and ordering constraints in C++ memory model. Learn how sequential consistency, acquire-release, and relaxed semantics affect atomic and non-atomic operations and their ordering between threads.
We'll cover the following...

There are, roughly speaking, three different types of synchronization and ordering constraints in C++:
- Sequential consistency:
memory_order_seq_cst - Acquire-release:
memory_order_consume,memory_order_acquire,memory_order_releaseand
