@BRIAN_____ @johnregehr @spun_off could something else happen to the data OOO even if the code treated the pointer as volatile?
@johnregehr Curious to hear what you think about http://lwn.net/Articles/586838/ …. To what extent is it possible in theory to make an OS in C11?

@johnregehr i.e., ignoring whether it is the *best* solution, could one actually create an OS where volatile has only its original meaning? -
@BRIAN_____ in a strict implementation of ISO C, no way -
@johnregehr That would be an awesome paper or blog post, if you ever write it. I think it could be done, or at least we're not too far away.
