   switch (op) {
     case FUTEX_OP_SET:
       __futex_atomic_op("mov %0,%1", ret, oldval, uaddr, oparg);
       break;
     case FUTEX_OP_ADD:
       __futex_atomic_op("addl %0,%4,%1\n", ret, oldval, uaddr, oparg);
       break;
     case FUTEX_OP_OR:
       __futex_atomic_op("or %0,%4,%1\n", ret, oldval, uaddr, oparg);
       break;
     case FUTEX_OP_ANDN:
       __futex_atomic_op("andnot %0,%4,%1\n", ret, oldval, uaddr, oparg);
       break;
     case FUTEX_OP_XOR:
       __futex_atomic_op("xor %0,%4,%1\n", ret, oldval, uaddr, oparg);
       break;
     default:
       ret = -ENOSYS;
   }


Also, there's a bug in the powerpc implementation.  It appears that 
oparg is clobbered, and if stwcx fails the operation will be repeated 
with incorrect inputs.
