[68/68] x86: Add memory modify constraints to xchg() and cmpxchg()

2.6.32-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>

commit 113fc5a6e8c2288619ff7e8187a6f556b7e0d372 upstream.

[ Backport to .32 by Tomáš Janoušek <tomi@nomi.cz> ]

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.

- * The semantics of XCHGCMP8B are a bit strange, this is why
- * there is a loop and the loading of %%eax and %%edx has to
- * be inside. This inlines well in most cases, the cached
- * cost is around ~38 cycles. (in the future we might want
- * to do an SIMD/3DNOW!/MMX/FPU 64-bit store here, but that
- * might have an implicit FPU-save as a cost, so it's not
- * clear which path to go.)
+ * CMPXCHG8B only writes to the target if we had the previous
+ * value in registers, otherwise it acts as a read and gives us the
+ * "new previous" value.  That is why there is a loop.  Preloading
+ * EDX:EAX is a performance optimization: in the common case it means
+ * we need only one locked operation.
  *
- * cmpxchg8b must be used with the lock prefix here to allow
- * the instruction to be executed atomically, see page 3-102
- * of the instruction set reference 24319102.pdf. We need
- * the reader side to see the coherent 64bit value.
+ * A SIMD/3DNOW!/MMX/FPU 64-bit store here would require at the very
+ * least an FPU save and/or %cr0.ts manipulation.
