Wait-Free Thread Synchronisation With the SeqLock
10:00 - 10:50 UTC | Wednesday 13th November 2024 | Bristol 2AdvancedWhen developing real-time audio processing applications in C++, the following problem arises almost inevitably: how can we share data between the real-time audio thread and the other threads (such as a GUI thread) in a way that is real-time safe? How can we synchronise reads and writes to C++ objects across threads, and manage the lifetime of these objects, while remaining wait-free on the real-time thread? This talk is the second in a series of talks about thread synchronisation in a real-time context. In the first episode, given at ADC 2022, we focused on the case where the real-time thread […]
