Atomically OR a value into an atomic object (C11)
#include <stdatomic.h> C atomic_fetch_or( volatile A *obj, M arg ); C atomic_fetch_or_explicit( volatile A *obj, M arg, memory_order order );
The atomic_fetch_or() and atomic_fetch_or_explicit() functions are generic functions that atomically OR the given value in to the given atomic object. The atomic_fetch_or() function orders memory access according to memory_order_seq_cst; atomic_fetch_or_explicit() orders them as specified by order.
The implementation of atomic functions may depend on the architecture. For more information, see LL/SC vs LSE atomic operations in the description in Building Embedded Systems of the cpuinfo area of the system page.
The previous value of the atomic object. The C represents the non-atomic data type that corresponds to the atomic object.

If this function is lock-free (see atomic_is_lock_free()), it's safe to call it from an ISR or signal handler.
