Subject: [PATCH 3/6] ARM: Emulate two-byte cmpxchg on ARMv6
Date: Fri, 11 Sep 2026 19:25:36 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260911192540.20983-4-brads@mainlining.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260911192540.20983-1-brads@mainlining.org>
ARMv6 without the ARMv6K extensions, selected as CONFIG_CPU_V6,
has no ldrexh/strexh, so the __cmpxchg() switch only provides
case 1 through cmpxchg_emu_u8() and lets case 2 fall through to
__bad_cmpxchg(). Route case 2 through cmpxchg_emu_u16() so that
two-byte cmpxchg() works on these cores too.
ARMv6K and later already have native case 2 in the #else branch,
and __cmpxchg_local() already covers sizes 1 and 2 for ARMv6 via
__generic_cmpxchg_local(), so neither is touched.
