I was looking for something like MSVC's InterlockedIncrement in gcc and found
the __sync_lock_test_and_set builtin.

I wrote a small test program:

  #include <stdio.h>
  int l;
  int main() {
    printf("%d\n",__sync_lock_test_and_set(&l,1));
  }

and when I look at the disassembly I get

  xchgl   l(%rip), %esi

in 64-bit mode and

  xchgl   l, %eax

in 32-bit mode.  Notably missing is the lock prefix.  I was expecting a lock
prefix since the builtin is called __sync_LOCK_test_and_set.  Should there not
be a lock here?

All I really want is a way to access lock cmpxchg and lock xadd, really :-)

Sorry, I just found out that xchg has an implicit lock.  Never mind about this
bug.

------- Comment #3 from pinskia at gcc dot gnu dot org  2009-01-01 16:01 -------
;; Recall that xchg implicitly sets LOCK#, so adding it again wastes space.
(define_insn "sync_lock_test_and_set<mode>"
  [(set (match_operand:IMODE 0 "register_operand" "=<modeconstraint>")
        (unspec_volatile:IMODE
          [(match_operand:IMODE 1 "memory_operand" "+m")] UNSPECV_XCHG))
   (set (match_dup 1)
        (match_operand:IMODE 2 "register_operand" "0"))]

So this is invalid as xchg implicitly sets LOCK.  why do you want to waste
space in the icache for something that is already done implicitly?
