2013-05-08arm64: Treat the bitops index argument as an 'int'Catalin Marinas
The bitops prototype use an 'int' as the bit index type but the asm implementation assume it to be a 'long'. Since the compiler does not guarantee zeroing the upper 32-bits in a register when used as 'int', change the bitops implementation accordingly.

2013-04-30arm64: Use acquire/release semantics instead of explicit DMBCatalin Marinas
This patch changes the test_and_*_bit functions to use the load-acquire/store-release instructions instead of explicit DMB. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>
2013-04-30arm64: klib: bitops: fix unpredictable stxr usageMark Rutland
We're currently relying on unpredictable behaviour in our testops (test_and_*_bit), as stxr is unpredictable when the status register and the source register are the same This patch changes reallocates the status register so as to bring us back into the realm of predictable behaviour. Boot tested on an AEMv8 model. Signed-off-by: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>
2013-03-21arm64: klib: Optimised atomic bitopsCatalin Marinas
This patch implements the AArch64-specific atomic bitops functions using exclusive memory accesses to avoid locking. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>
