`AtomicBool` is defined to have the same layout as `bool`, which means that we guarantee that it has a size of 1 byte. However on certain architectures such as RISC-V, LLVM will emulate byte atomics using a masked CAS loop on an aligned word. We can take advantage of the fact that `bool` only ever has a value of 0 or 1 to replace `swap` operations with `and`/`or` operations that LLVM can lower to word-sized atomic `and`/`or` operations. This takes advantage of the fact that the incoming value to a `swap` or `compare_exchange` for `AtomicBool` is often a compile-time constant. |
