Abstract
A method for performing an atomic memory operation may include receiving an atomic input, receiving an address for an atomic memory location, and performing an atomic operation on the atomic memory location based on the atomic input, wherein performing the atomic operation may include performing a first operation on a first portion of the atomic input, and performing a second operation, which may be different from the first operation, on a second portion of the atomic input. The method may further include storing a result of the first operation in a first portion of the atomic memory location, and storing a result of the second operation in a second portion of the atomic memory location. The method may further include returning an original content of the first portion of the atomic memory location concatenated with an original content of the second portion of the atomic memory location.
