! ! atomic compare-and-swap routines for V8 sparc ! and for V8+ (ultrasparc) ! ! ! standard asm linkage macros; this module must be compiled ! with the -P option (use C preprocessor) #include ! ====================================================================== ! ! Perform the sequence *a = b atomically with respect to previous value ! of a (a0). If *a==a0 then assign *a to b, all in one atomic operation. ! Returns 1 if assignment happened, and 0 otherwise. ! ! usage : old_val = compare_and_swap(address, oldval, newval) ! ! ----------------------- ! Note on REGISTER USAGE: ! as this is a LEAF procedure, a new stack frame is not created; ! we use the caller stack frame so what would normally be %i (input) ! registers are actually %o (output registers). Also, we must not ! overwrite the contents of %l (local) registers as they are not ! assumed to be volatile during calls. ! ! So, the registers used are: ! %o0 [input] - the address of the value to increment ! %o1 [input] - the old value to compare with ! %o2 [input] - the new value to set for [%o0] ! %o3 [local] - work register ! ----------------------- #ifndef ULTRA_SPARC ! v8 ENTRY(compare_and_swap) ! standard assembler/ELF prologue mov -1,%o3 ! busy flag swap [%o0],%o3 ! get current value l1: tst %o3 ! busy? bneg,a l1 ! if so, spin swap [%o0],%o3 ! using branch-delay to swap back value cmp %o1,%o3 ! compare old with current be,a l2 ! if equal then swap in new value swap [%o0],%o2 ! done. swap [%o0],%o3 ! otherwise, swap back current value retl mov 0,%o0 ! return false l2: retl mov 1,%o0 ! return true SET_SIZE(compare_and_swap) ! standard assembler/ELF epilogue ! ! end ! #else /* ULTRA_SPARC */ ! ====================================================================== ! ! v9 ENTRY(compare_and_swap) ! standard assembler/ELF prologue cas [%o0],%o1,%o2 ! compare *w with old value and set to new if equal cmp %o1,%o2 ! did we succeed? be,a m1 ! yes mov 1,%o0 ! return true (annulled if no jump) mov 0,%o0 ! return false m1: retl nop SET_SIZE(compare_and_swap) ! standard assembler/ELF epilogue ! ! end ! ! ====================================================================== ! #endif
