The waf build system generates this already. No point in redoing it in
the header file.
The legacy build system (which we really should drop) didn't; fix it.
As usual, we prefer plain C11 names and semantics, and have to emulate
them if C11 atomics are not available.
For the non-atomic fallback (which is just there to make code compile in
situations the atomic property is not overly important), we require a
gross hack to make the generic macros work without using compiler-
specific extensions.
As usual, we use C11 semantics, and emulate it if <stdatomic.h> is not
available.
It's a bit messy with __sync_val_compare_and_swap(). We assume it has
"strong" semantics (it can't fail sporadically), but I'm not sure if
this is really the case. On the other hand, weak semantics don't seem to
be possible, since the builtin can't distinguish between the two failure
cases that could occur. Also, to match the C11 interface, use of gcc
builtins is unavoidable. Add a check to the build system to make sure
the compiler supports them (although I don't think there's any compiler
which supports __sync_*, but not these extensions).
Needed for the following commit.
bstr.c doesn't really deserve its own directory, and compat had just
a few files, most of which may as well be in osdep. There isn't really
any justification for these extra directories, so get rid of them.
The compat/libav.h was empty - just delete it. We changed our approach
to API compatibility, and will likely not need it anymore.
