Subject: [PATCH] erts/ethread: instruct libatomic_ops we do require CAS
|
|
|
|
We do require compare-and-swap (CAS), so we must instruct libatomic_ops
|
|
to provide it, even if the architecture does not have instructions for
|
|
it.
|
|
|
|
For example, on ARM, LDREX is required for fast CAS. But LDREX is only
|
|
available on ARMv6, so by default libatomic_ops will not have CAS for
|
|
anything below, like ARMv5. But ARMv5 is always UP, so using an
|
|
emulated CAS (that is signal-asyn-safe) is still possible (albeit much
|
|
slower).
|
|
|
|
Tell libatomic_ops to provide CAS, even if the hardware is not capable
|
|
of it, by using emulated CAS, as per libatomic_ops dosc:
|
|
https://github.com/ivmai/libatomic_ops/blob/master/doc/README.txt#L28
|
|
|
|
If this is included after defining AO_REQUIRE_CAS, then the package
|
|
will make an attempt to emulate compare-and-swap in a way that (at
|
|
least on Linux) should still be async-signal-safe.
|
|
|
|
Thanks go to Thomas for all this insight! :-)
|
|
Thanks go to Frank for reporting the issue! :-)
