     58In the proposal of Gsoc2012 project it has make a very detailed comparisons of all the above atomic implementations. Finally the atomic operations for RTEMS will refer the FreeBSD atomic implementations but the API design should contain most type of ISO C11 atomic definitions and follow its standard for API evolution.
