SYNOPSIS

       #include <ck_pr.h>

       void *
       ck_pr_load_ptr(const void *target);

       double
       ck_pr_load_double(const double *target);

       unsigned int
       ck_pr_load_uint(const unsigned int *target);

       int
       ck_pr_load_int(const int *target);

       char
       ck_pr_load_char(const char *target);

       uint64_t
       ck_pr_load_64(const uint64_t *target);

       uint32_t
       ck_pr_load_32(const uint32_t *target);

       uint16_t
       ck_pr_load_16(const uint16_t *target);

       uint8_t
       ck_pr_load_8(const uint8_t *target);

DESCRIPTION

       The ck_pr_load(3) family of functions atomically loads the value pointed to by  target  and  returns  it.
       This  family  of  functions  always  serves as an implicit compiler barrier and is not susceptible to re-
       ordering by the compiler.

RETURN VALUES

       This family of functions returns the value contained in the location pointed to by the first argument.
