Really, you should rarely be using raw memory barriers even in C, IMO. The C11/C++11 atomics model (which Rust also uses) is substantially nicer. Though, unfortunately, still extremely tricky to get right.

The only time that I ever had to worry about that was when writing drivers for the Linux kernel.
