This replaces the
Mutex<u32>
that was used to keep track of the allocation count for validation with anAtomicU32
. The purpose is that this atomic is going to give us wait-free reads of the value, which I would like to use in #1997. I've also made the count public if a user would like to write their own allocator and use the value for heuristics much the way the library is going to.Changelog:
