glibc used to do this:
| #define __arch_c_compare_and_exchange_val_8_acq(mem, newval, oldval) \
| ({ __typeof (*mem) ret; \
| __asm __volatile ("cmpl $0, %%fs:%P5\n\t" \
| "je 0f\n\t" \
| "lock\n" \
| "0:\tcmpxchgb %b2, %1" \
| : "=a" (ret), "=m" (*mem) \
| : "q" (newval), "m" (*mem), "0" (oldval), \
| "i" (offsetof (tcbhead_t, multiple_threads))); \
| ret; })
Will this still work?
Thanks,
Florian
