Thanks. So the structure in the OP is an array of uint32s.

> that unsynchronized reads of a uint64 will return some previous valid write, it doesn't guarantee anything about which value is returned

Your the second person saying this, so is my interpretation that this is dissallowed by the part that you quoted incorrect?
