Subject: [PATCH][libatomic] Fix return value in libat_test_and_set
Date: Thu, 24 Mar 2022 09:28:15 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220324082813.GA6633@delia.home> (raw)

Hi,

On nvptx (using a Quadro K2000 with driver 470.103.01) I ran into this:
...
FAIL: gcc.dg/atomic/stdatomic-flag-2.c -O1 execution test
...
which mimimized to:
...
  #include <stdatomic.h>
  atomic_flag a = ATOMIC_FLAG_INIT;
  int main () {
    if ((atomic_flag_test_and_set) (&a))
      __builtin_abort ();
    return 0;
  }
...

The atomic_flag_test_and_set is implemented using __atomic_test_and_set_1,
which corresponds to the "word-sized compare-and-swap loop" version of
libat_test_and_set in libatomic/tas_n.c.

The semantics of a test-and-set is that the return value is "true if and only
if the previous contents were 'set'".

But the code uses:
...
  return woldval != 0;
...
which means it doesn't look only at the byte that was either set or not set,
but at the entire word.

Fix this by using instead:
...
  return (woldval & wval) == wval;
...

Tested on nvptx.

OK for trunk?

Thanks,
- Tom
