> Several platform specific locking and CAS operations are implemented in HostAsm and related files. These are not portable and require porting efforts. They are also not well tested. Converting the C++11 standards allows the compiler to choose the code or instructions that optimize the behavior required. Most if not all of the functions these files provide can be replaced with C++11 standard functions.
> Some Examples:
> On Solaris SPARC we have inline assembly.
> On Solaris x86 we use Solaris specific runtime functions.
> On Windows we use really old Win32 functions that have some non-standard behavior.
