Re: [Xen-devel] Atomic operations
The problem is that we dynamically remove LOCK_PREFIX when the guest has
only one vcpu. You need your own version of atomic.h in which you do not use
LOCK_PREFIX but use ?lock¹ directly instead. See
include/asm-i386/mach-xen/asm/sync_bitops.h for example, which is our
guaranteed inter-domain safe version of bitops.h.
