# [−][src]Function core::intrinsics::atomic_cxchg_acq

    pub unsafe extern "rust-intrinsic" fn atomic_cxchg_acq<T>(
        dst: *mut T,
        old: T,
        src: T
    ) -> (T, bool)

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`core_intrinsics`)

intrinsics are unlikely to ever be stabilized, instead they should be used through stabilized interfaces in the rest of the standard library

Stores a value if the current value is the same as the `old` value. The stabilized version of this intrinsic is available on the `std::sync::atomic` types via the `compare_exchange` method by passing `Ordering::Acquire` as both the `success` and `failure` parameters. For example, `AtomicBool::compare_exchange`.

## Search Tricks

Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g. `fn:`) to restrict the search to a given type.

Accepted types are: `fn`, `mod`, `struct`, `enum`, `trait`, `type`, `macro`, and `const`.

Search functions by type signature (e.g. `vec -> usize` or `* -> vec`)

Search multiple things at once by splitting your query with comma (e.g. `str,u8` or `String,struct:Vec,test`)
