return p->load(std::memory_order_acquire) + p->load(std::memory_order_acquire);
}
you see that MSV...

Why was nop assigned to 0x90 on intel x86 assembly?
Intuitively I would expect that 0x00 would map to nop (which is also xchg eax, eax at intel x86) as it is the case for ARM A32 and some other ar...
