I'm not sure what you're asking. Are you maybe looking for 
core.atomic.atomicOp?

Example:
----
import core.atomic: atomicOp;
import std.parallelism: parallel;
import std.range: iota;
import std.stdio: writeln;

void main()
{
     int x = 0;
     shared int y = 0;
     foreach(i; parallel(iota(100_000)))
     {
         ++x;
         y.atomicOp!"+="(1);
     }
     writeln(x); /* usually less than 100_000 */
     writeln(y); /* 100_000 */
}
