No description available.
The ExInterlockedCompareExchange64 routine compares one integer variable to another and, if they are equal, sets the first variable to a caller-supplied value.
Destination
[in, out]A pointer to an integer that will be compared and possibly replaced.
Exchange
[in]A pointer to an integer that will replace the one at Destination if the comparison results in equality.
Comperand
A pointer to an integer with which the value at Destination will be compared.
Lock
[in]A pointer to a caller-allocated spin-lock that is used if the host system does not support an 8-byte atomic compare-and-exchange operation.
This macro wraps InterlockedCompareExchange64 or ExfInterlockedCompareExchange64 and assumes the return value of the type LONGLONG.
ExInterlockedCompareExchange64 tests and, possibly, replaces the value of a given variable. For most underlying microprocessors, this routine is implemented inline by the compiler to execute as an atomic operation. If a spin lock is used, this routine can only be safely used on nonpaged parameters.
If the Destination and Comparand are unequal, ExInterlockedCompareExchange64 simply returns the value of Destination.
ExInterlockedCompareExchange64 is atomic only with respect to other (Ex)InterlockedXxx calls.
Callers of ExInterlockedCompareExchange64 can be running at any IRQL. The storage for the Destination, Comparand, and Exchange parameter and the list entries must be resident at all IRQLs.
