User Defined Atomics
Explore the requirements for user-defined atomic types in C++, focusing on type traits, trivial copy operations, and memory safety. Understand how to apply std::atomic to custom types while adhering to concurrency and memory model rules.

There are a lot of deep restrictions on a user-defined type MyType if you use it for an atomic type std::atomic<MyType>. These restrictions are on the type MyType, but also on the operations that std::atomic<MyType> can perform.
Here are the restrictions ...
