try_cmpxchg() loop with constant "new" value can be substituted with just xchg() to atomically get and clear the location. The code on x86_64 improves from: 1e7f: 48 89 4c 24 10 mov %rcx,0x10(%rsp) 1e84: 48 03 14 c5 00 00 00 add 0x0(,%rax,8),%rdx 1e8b: 00 1e88: R_X86_64_32S __per_cpu_offset 1e8c: 8b 02 mov (%rdx),%eax 1e8e: 41 89 c5 mov %eax,%r13d 1e91: 31 c9 xor %ecx,%ecx 1e93: f0 0f b1 0a lock cmpxchg %ecx,(%rdx) 1e97: 75 f5 jne 1e8e <xlog_cil_commit+0x84e> 1e99: 48 8b 4c 24 10 mov 0x10(%rsp),%rcx 1e9e: 45 01 e9 add %r13d,%r9d to just: 1e7f: 48 03 14 cd 00 00 00 add 0x0(,%rcx,8),%rdx 1e86: 00 1e83: R_X86_64_32S __per_cpu_offset 1e87: 31 c9 xor %ecx,%ecx 1e89: 87 0a xchg %ecx,(%rdx) 1e8b: 41 01 cb add %ecx,%r11d No functional change intended.
