As discussed on the debian-hppa list, double-wordcompare and exchange operations fail on 32-bit kernels. Looking at the code, I realized that the ",ma" completer does the wrong thing in the "ldw,ma 4(%r26), %r29" instruction. This increments %r26 and causes the following store to write to the wrong location. Signed-off-by: John David Anglin <dave.anglin@xxxxxxxx>
