Recently I had to do some work making a string library thread safe, and I believe I've done that(by using some inline assembly to make reference counting handled with atomic instructions), but now I need to test it to make sure.
I'm not entirely sure how to make such a test as I've never had to do that kind of thing before. What kind of things should the test suite do to make sure the reference counting is thread safe?
