> Let me rephrase: why is it preferable to add first class instruction support for opaque scope rather than using intrinsics? Given that LLVM core now supports atomic instructions, it would seem desirable to use them for all languages supported by LLVM. This would allow optimizations to be aware of the memory semantics. By using intrinsics this information no longer becomes available in a

...operations after it, but allow reordering of memory operations (except another atomic acquire) before it, regardless of the memory scope.
