For example, all non-atomic and relaxed atomic stores that happen before a <code><a href="memory_order" title="c/atomic/memory order">memory_order_release</a></code> fence in thread A will be synchronized with non-atomic and relaxed atomic loads from the same locations made in thread B after an <code><a href="memory_order" title="c/atomic/memory order">memory_order_acquire</a></code> fence.</p>
