Subject: [Qemu-devel] testandset asm fix
Date: Sun, 6 Feb 2005 14:43:38 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200502061443.38384.paul@codesourcery.com> (raw)
The inline assembly used for the x86/x86-64 host testandset routine is bogus.
The operand constraints are wrong (Fails to compile at -O0).
Also the return value is incorrect. It should return 0 if the lock was
successfully acquired.
Patch below fixes it. The additional sete test is unnecessary, we can just use
the comparison/writeback value.
