std::condit...::notify_all(3)  C++ Standard Libary std::condit...::notify_all(3)

NAME
     std::condition_variable::notify_all - std::condition_variable::notify_all

Synopsis
	void notify_all() noexcept;  (since C++11)

	Unblocks all threads currently waiting for *this.

Parameters
	(none)

Return value
	(none)

Notes
	The  effects  of  notify_one()/notify_all() and each of the three atomic
     parts of
	wait()/wait_for()/wait_until()	(unlock+wait,  wakeup,	and  lock)  take
     place in a
	single total order that can be viewed as modification order of an atomic
     variable:
	the  order is specific to this individual condition variable. This makes
     it
	impossible for notify_one() to, for example, be delayed  and  unblock  a
     thread that
	started waiting just after the call to notify_one() was made.

	The notifying thread does not need to hold the lock on the same mutex as
     the one
	held  by  the  waiting thread(s). Doing so may be a pessimization, since
     the notified
	thread would immediately block again, waiting for the  notifying  thread
     to release
	the  lock,  though some implementations recognize the pattern and do not
     attempt to
	wake up the thread that is notified under lock.

Example
     // Run this code

      #include <chrono>
      #include <condition_variable>
      #include <iostream>
      #include <thread>

      std::condition_variable cv;
      std::mutex cv_m; // This mutex is used for three purposes:
		       // 1) to synchronize accesses to i
		       // 2) to synchronize accesses to std::cerr
		       // 3) for the condition variable cv
      int i = 0;

      void waits()
      {
	  std::unique_lock<std::mutex> lk(cv_m);
	  std::cerr << "Waiting... \n";
	  cv.wait(lk, []{ return i == 1; });
	  std::cerr << "...finished waiting. i == 1\n";
      }

      void signals()
      {
	  std::this_thread::sleep_for(std::chrono::seconds(1));
	  {
	      std::lock_guard<std::mutex> lk(cv_m);
	      std::cerr << "Notifying...\n";
	  }
	  cv.notify_all();

	  std::this_thread::sleep_for(std::chrono::seconds(1));

	  {
	      std::lock_guard<std::mutex> lk(cv_m);
	      i = 1;
	      std::cerr << "Notifying again...\n";
	  }
	  cv.notify_all();
      }

      int main()
      {
	  std::thread t1(waits), t2(waits), t3(waits), t4(signals);
	  t1.join();
	  t2.join();
	  t3.join();
	  t4.join();
      }

Possible output:
      Waiting...
      Waiting...
      Waiting...
      Notifying...
      Notifying again...
      ...finished waiting. i == 1
      ...finished waiting. i == 1
      ...finished waiting. i == 1
