Introduce the arch_sync_try_cmpxchg() macro to improve code using sync_try_cmpxchg() locking primitive. The new definitions use existing __raw_try_cmpxchg() macros, but use its own "lock; " prefix. The new macros improve assembly of the cmpxchg loop in evtchn_fifo_unmask() from drivers/xen/events/events_fifo.c from: 57a: 85 c0 test %eax,%eax 57c: 78 52 js 5d0 <...> 57e: 89 c1 mov %eax,%ecx 580: 25 ff ff ff af and $0xafffffff,%eax 585: c7 04 24 00 00 00 00 movl $0x0,(%rsp) 58c: 81 e1 ff ff ff ef and $0xefffffff,%ecx 592: 89 4c 24 04 mov %ecx,0x4(%rsp) 596: 89 44 24 08 mov %eax,0x8(%rsp) 59a: 8b 74 24 08 mov 0x8(%rsp),%esi 59e: 8b 44 24 04 mov 0x4(%rsp),%eax 5a2: f0 0f b1 32 lock cmpxchg %esi,(%rdx) 5a6: 89 04 24 mov %eax,(%rsp) 5a9: 8b 04 24 mov (%rsp),%eax 5ac: 39 c1 cmp %eax,%ecx 5ae: 74 07 je 5b7 <...> 5b0: a9 00 00 00 40 test $0x40000000,%eax 5b5: 75 c3 jne 57a <...> <...> to: 578: a9 00 00 00 40 test $0x40000000,%eax 57d: 74 2b je 5aa <...> 57f: 85 c0 test %eax,%eax 581: 78 40 js 5c3 <...> 583: 89 c1 mov %eax,%ecx 585: 25 ff ff ff af and $0xafffffff,%eax 58a: 81 e1 ff ff ff ef and $0xefffffff,%ecx 590: 89 4c 24 04 mov %ecx,0x4(%rsp) 594: 89 44 24 08 mov %eax,0x8(%rsp) 598: 8b 4c 24 08 mov 0x8(%rsp),%ecx 59c: 8b 44 24 04 mov 0x4(%rsp),%eax 5a0: f0 0f b1 0a lock cmpxchg %ecx,(%rdx) 5a4: 89 44 24 04 mov %eax,0x4(%rsp) 5a8: 75 30 jne 5da <...> <...> 5da: 8b 44 24 04 mov 0x4(%rsp),%eax 5de: eb 98 jmp 578 <...> The new code removes move instructions from 585: 5a6: and 5a9: and the compare from 5ac:. Additionally, the compiler assumes that cmpxchg success is more probable and optimizes code flow accordingly.
