Soenneker.Asyncs.Locks

The fastest .NET async lock

This library provides a single primitive: AsyncLock.

Design goal

AsyncLock is built to be the fastest possible correct mutex for real-world .NET systems.

It provides the following guarantees:

Cancellation-safe
  • Fully supports cancellation before acquisition and while waiting for both async and sync callers.
  • Cancelled waiters are removed immediately, never resumed, and never leaked � with zero impact on the fast path.
Unified async + sync locking
  • Async and synchronous callers share the same mutex.
  • Ordering is preserved without adapters, wrappers, or duplicated synchronization primitives.
Performance (by design)
  • Uncontended acquisition is as close to a single atomic operation as possible
  • No allocations, tasks, or state machines unless contention occurs
  • Cancellation and disposal logic are completely excluded from the fast path
  • Deterministic behavior under contention

Installation

dotnet add package Soenneker.Asyncs.Locks

Usage

Async

await using (await _lock.Lock(ct))
{
 // critical section
}

Sync

using (_lock.LockSync())
{
 // critical section
}

Try-lock

if (_lock.TryLock(out var releaser))
{
 using (releaser)
 {
 // critical section
 }
}
