Add generic and target specific support for local{,64}_try_cmpxchg and wire up support for all targets that use local_t infrastructure. The patch enables x86 targets to emit special instruction for local_try_cmpxchg and also local64_try_cmpxchg for x86_64. The last patch changes __perf_output_begin in events/ring_buffer to use new locking primitive and improves code from 4b3: 48 8b 82 e8 00 00 00 mov 0xe8(%rdx),%rax 4ba: 48 8b b8 08 04 00 00 mov 0x408(%rax),%rdi 4c1: 8b 42 1c mov 0x1c(%rdx),%eax 4c4: 48 8b 4a 28 mov 0x28(%rdx),%rcx 4c8: 85 c0 test %eax,%eax ... 4ef: 48 89 c8 mov %rcx,%rax 4f2: 48 0f b1 7a 28 cmpxchg %rdi,0x28(%rdx) 4f7: 48 39 c1 cmp %rax,%rcx 4fa: 75 b7 jne 4b3 <...> to 4b2: 48 8b 4a 28 mov 0x28(%rdx),%rcx 4b6: 48 8b 82 e8 00 00 00 mov 0xe8(%rdx),%rax 4bd: 48 8b b0 08 04 00 00 mov 0x408(%rax),%rsi 4c4: 8b 42 1c mov 0x1c(%rdx),%eax 4c7: 85 c0 test %eax,%eax ... 4d4: 48 89 c8 mov %rcx,%rax 4d7: 48 0f b1 72 28 cmpxchg %rsi,0x28(%rdx) 4dc: 0f 85 d0 00 00 00 jne 5b2 <...> ... 5b2: 48 89 c1 mov %rax,%rcx 5b5: e9 fc fe ff ff jmp 4b6 <...> Please note that in addition to removed compare, the load from 0x28(%rdx) gets moved out of the loop and the code is rearranged according to likely/unlikely tags in the source. --- v2: Implement target specific support for local_try_cmpxchg and local_cmpxchg using typed C wrappers that call their _local counterpart and provide additional checking of their input arguments.
