A simple implementation that only supports the word size and does not have a fallback mode (would require a spinlock). Add 32 and 64 bit support for cmpxchg_double. cmpxchg double uses the cmpxchg8b or cmpxchg16b instruction on x86 processors to compare and swap 2 machine words. This allows lockless algorithms to move more context information through critical sections. Set a flag CONFIG_CMPXCHG_DOUBLE to signal that support for double word cmpxchg detection has been build into the kernel. Note that each subsystem using cmpxchg_double has to implement a fall back mechanism as long as we offer support for processors that do not implement cmpxchg_double. Reviewed-by: NH.

We have two functions for doing exactly the same thing -- emulating cmpxchg8b on 486 and older hardware -- with different calling conventions, and yet doing the same thing. Drop the C version and use the assembly version, via alternatives, for both the local and non-local versions of cmpxchg8b. Signed-off-by: NH.

Remove the __xg() hack to create a memory barrier near xchg and cmpxchg; it has been there since 1.3.11 but should not be necessary with "asm volatile" and a "memory" clobber, neither of which were there in the original implementation. However, we *should* make this a volatile reference. Signed-off-by: NH. Peter Anvin <hpa@linux.intel.com> LKML-Reference: <AANLkTikAmaDPji-TVDarmG1yD=fwbffcsmEU=YEuP+8r@mail.gmail.com>

Clean up and simplify set_64bit(). This code is quite old (1.3.11) and contains a fair bit of auxilliary machinery that current versions of gcc handle just fine automatically. Worse, the auxilliary machinery can actually cause an unnecessary spill to memory. Furthermore, the loading of the old value inside the loop in the 32-bit case is unnecessary: if the value doesn't match, the CMPXCHG8B instruction will already have loaded the "new previous" value for us. Clean up the comment, too, and remove page references to obsolete versions of the Intel SDM. Signed-off-by: NH. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com> LKML-Reference: <tip-*@vger.kernel.org>

xchg() and cmpxchg() modify their memory operands, not merely read them. For some versions of gcc the "memory" clobber has apparently dealt with the situation, but not for all.

cmpxchg64() today generates, to quote Linus, "barf bag" code. cmpxchg64() is about to get used in the scheduler to fix a bug there, but it's a prerequisite that cmpxchg64() first be made non-sucking. This patch turns cmpxchg64() into an efficient implementation that uses the alternative() mechanism to just use the raw instruction on all modern systems. Note: the fallback is NOT smp safe, just like the current fallback is not SMP safe. (Interested parties with i486 based SMP systems are welcome to submit fix patches for that.)

This patch is the result of an automatic script that consolidates the format of all the headers in include/asm-x86/. The format: 1. No leading underscore. Names with leading underscores are reserved. 2. Pathname components are separated by two underscores. So we can distinguish between mm_types.h and mm/types.h. 3. Everything except letters and numbers are turned into single underscores. Signed-off-by: NVegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@gmail.com>

In every other integer case the original cmpxchg code (and the cmpxchg_local which has been copied from it) worked fine, but since we touch a pointer, the type needs to be casted in the cmpxchg_local and cmpxchg macros. The more recent code (586+) does not have this problem (the cast is already there).

Actually, on 386, cmpxchg and cmpxchg_local fall back on cmpxchg_386_u8/16/32: it disables interruptions around non atomic updates to mimic the cmpxchg behavior. The comment: /* Poor man's cmpxchg for 386. Unsuitable for SMP */ already present in cmpxchg_386_u32 tells much about how this cmpxchg implementation should not be used in a SMP context. However, the cmpxchg_local can perfectly use this fallback, since it only needs to be atomic wrt the local cpu. This patch adds a cmpxchg_486_u64 and uses it as a fallback for cmpxchg64 and cmpxchg64_local on 80386 and 80486. Q: but why is it called cmpxchg_486 when the other functions are called A: Because the standard cmpxchg is missing only on 386, but cmpxchg8b is missing both on 386 and 486. Citing Intel's Instruction set reference: cmpxchg: This instruction is not supported on Intel processors earlier than the Intel486 processors. cmpxchg8b: This instruction encoding is not supported on Intel processors earlier than the Pentium processors. Q: What's the reason to have cmpxchg64_local on 32 bit architectures? Without that need all this would just be a few simple defines. A: cmpxchg64_local on 32 bits architectures takes unsigned long long parameters, but cmpxchg_local only takes longs. Since we have cmpxchg8b to execute a 8 byte cmpxchg atomically on pentium and +, it makes sense to provide a flavor of cmpxchg and cmpxchg_local using this instruction. Also, for 32 bits architectures lacking the 64 bits atomic cmpxchg, it makes sense _not_ to define cmpxchg64 while cmpxchg could still be available. Moreover, the fallback for cmpxchg8b on i386 for 386 and 486 is a However, cmpxchg64_local will be emulated by disabling interrupts on all architectures where it is not supported atomically. Therefore, we *could* turn cmpxchg64_local into a cmpxchg_local, but it would make the 386/486 fallbacks ugly, make its design different from cmpxchg/cmpxchg64 (which really depends on atomic operations and cannot be emulated) and require the __cmpxchg_local to be expressed as a macro rather than an inline function so the parameters would not be fixed to unsigned long long in every case. So I think cmpxchg64_local makes sense there, but I am open to suggestions. Q: Are there any callers? A: I am actually using it in LTTng in my timestamping code. I use it to work around CPUs with asynchronous TSCs. I need to update 64 bits values atomically on this 32 bits architecture. Changelog: - Ran though checkpatch.

Currently, CONFIG_X86_CMPXCHG64 both enables boot-time checking of the cmpxchg64b feature and enables compilation of the set_64bit() family. Since the option is dependent on PAE, and since KVM depends on set_64bit(), this effectively disables KVM on i386 nopae. Simplify by removing the config option altogether: the boot check is made dependent on CONFIG_X86_PAE directly, and the set_64bit() family is exposed without constraints. It is up to users to check for the feature flag (KVM does not as virtualiation extensions imply its existence).

i386: Rearrange the cmpxchg code to allow atomic.h to get it without needing to include system.h. This kills warnings in the UML build from atomic.h about implicit declarations of cmpxchg symbols. The i386 build presumably isn't seeing this because a separate inclusion of system.h is covering it over. The cmpxchg stuff is moved to asm-i386/cmpxchg.h, with an include left in system.h for the benefit of generic code which expects cmpxchg there. Meanwhile, atomic.h includes cmpxchg.h. This causes no noticable damage to the i386 build. x86_64: Move cmpxchg into its own header. atomic.h already included system.h, so this is changed to include cmpxchg.h. This is purely cleanup - it's not fixing any warnings - so if the x86_64 system.h isn't considered as cleanup-worthy as i386, then this can be dropped. It causes no noticable damage to the x86_64 build. uml: The i386 and x86_64 cmpxchg patches require an asm-um/cmpxchg.h for the UML build.
