Hi there,

I order to develop a qemu module, I aim to use the PCI CAS (compare and=20
swap) function
to guarantee an atomic access somewhere in the guest memory (in a=20
multi-core emulation case).

Nevertheless, I did not find any routine in qemu implementing this functi=
on.

Could anyone on this list tell me if this is implemented and if that's=20
not the case, if this would be hard to get implemented ?

Thanks in advance for any answer.

Regards,

                     Fran=E7ois
