# C#/.NET System namespace support
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Burst provides support for some of the `System` namespace, transforming these into Burst compatible variants in the Burst compiler.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## `System.Math`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Burst supports all methods that `System.Math` declares, with the following exceptions:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- `double IEEERemainder(double x, double y)` is only supported when Api Compatibility Level is set to .NET Standard 2.1 in project settings
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## `System.IntPtr`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Burst supports all methods of `System.IntPtr`/`System.UIntPtr`, including the static fields `IntPtr.Zero` and `IntPtr.Size`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## `System.Threading.Interlocked`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Burst supports atomic memory intrinsics for all methods provided by `System.Threading.Interlocked` (for example, `Interlocked.Increment`).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Make sure that the source location of the interlocked methods are naturally aligned. For example, the alignment of the pointer is a multiple of the pointed-to-type:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```c#
|
||
|
|
[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Explicit)]
|
||
|
|
struct Foo
|
||
|
|
{
|
||
|
|
[FieldOffset(0)] public long a;
|
||
|
|
[FieldOffset(5)] public long b;
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
public long AtomicReadAndAdd()
|
||
|
|
{
|
||
|
|
return Interlocked.Read(ref a) + Interlocked.Read(ref b);
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If the pointer to the struct `Foo` has an alignment of 8, which is the natural alignment of a `long` value, the `Interlocked.Read` of `a` would be successful because it lies on a naturally aligned address. However, `b` would not be successful and undefined behavior happens at the load of `b` as a result.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## `System.Threading.Thread`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Burst supports the `MemoryBarrier` method of `System.Threading.Thread`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## `System.Threading.Volatile`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Burst supports the non-generic variants of `Read` and `Write` provided by `System.Threading.Volatile`.
