--- Comment #23 from Joshua Kinard  ---
Any chance someone from the MIPS side can take a look at this PR and figure out
a solution?  I cannot find a way to sanely-intercept the glibc build and get
the preprocessed output of 'sln.c'.  glibc's build system is just too complex
to figure out.  I reconfirmed the problem using gcc-4.9.3 20150119
(prerelease), by building it from the gcc-4_9-branch git branch, so this bug is
still present.

Still only seems to affect R1, R12000, and R14000-based systems.  Can
easily reproduce on both an Octane (IP30) and Onyx2 (IP27).  RM7000-based SGI
O2 (IP32) does not seem to be affected, but I have not had that machine powered
up lately to get a reverification.

This might have been inadvertently fixed by this patch:
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2014-11/msg02282.html

Which is commit 0d18e650 in the master branch.  Can't pin down when that was
merged into the 4.9 branch.  I backported the patch to gcc-4.9.2 and rebuilt
that, and can now compile Python-3.3 w/o issue.  Going to test the glibc case
next and see if elf/sln will execute or not.

I don't think it was inadvertently fixed by that patch, rather that patch is
the correct fix for this bug; just not mentioning this bug report as the person
did not know about it.

So closing as fixed.

Do you have the preprocessed source for this?

Not currently.  I'd have to intercept a glibc build and grab the compile string
for sln.c and use that to crate the preprocessed source.  I'll see if I can
start a run tonight or tomorrow for this.

That said, I have worked out that it's got something to do with gcc's built-in
atomics added for 4.8.  In glibc's sysdeps/mips/bits/atomic.h, there are
conditional macros that pick whether to use the old __sync_* builtins if
gcc-4.7 and earlier, or the new __atomic_* builtins in gcc-4.8 or later.  This
is why there is a difference between the output assembler between the 4.7 and
4.8 sln files.

Under gcc-4.7, atomic_exchange_acq falls back to __sync_lock_test_and_set,
which is an acquire memmodel operation, and this works fine on an R14000
processor.  It's under gcc-4.8+, whatever atomic_exchange_acquire() maps to
there, that hangs up on the processor.  I checked the kernel side, and the
futex is getting lost in freezable_schedule() in include/linux/freezer.h.  I
haven't traced beyond that point yet.  The futex will exit the scheduler when
you ctrl+c it.

If you delete or comment out the gcc-4.8 defines for the atomic ops in
sysdeps/mips/bits/atomic.h in glibc to force it back to the older __sync_* ops,
it'll build with 4.8+ and the resulting sln WILL work.  So it's definitely a
gcc issue.  I got a hold of Maxim Kuvyrkov regarding commit 39a8c5ea, but I
haven't heard back from him since early September, despite sending two
follow-up e-mails.

Disassembly of the ASM from 'sln' compiled by a known working gcc-4.8.0.

This is the objdump disassembly of the '__lll_lock_wait_private()' function
from the sln binary from glibc, statically compiled, by a GOOD gcc-4.8.0
checkout (7882e02e) with commits 39a8c5ea, 974f0a74, 0f8e46b1, and 30c3c442

This is the objdump disassembly of the '__lll_lock_wait_private()' function
