+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm atomic_dec
+family of functions decrement
+.Pq by one
+the variable referenced by
+.Fa ptr
+in an atomic fashion.
+.Pp
+The
+.Fn *_nv
+variants of these functions return the new value.
+.Pp
+The 64-bit variants of these functions are available only on platforms
+that can support atomic 64-bit memory access.
+Applications can check for the availability of 64-bit atomic memory
+operations by testing if the pre-processor macro
+.Dv __HAVE_ATOMIC64_OPS
+is defined.
+.Sh SEE ALSO
+.Xr atomic_ops 3
+.Sh HISTORY
+The
+.Nm atomic_dec
+functions first appeared in
+.Nx 5.0 .
