Hi, Mike!

Sorry for the delay.

The following patch makes atomic-op-consume.c XFAIL for both 
gcc.target/arm and gcc.target/aarch64 tests. XFAIL was chosen as 
prefered approach for handling __ATOMIC_CONSUME to __ATOMIC_ACQUIRE 
promotion workaround.


This patch was tested by running the modified tests on aarch64-none-elf
and arm-none-eabi compilers.

Is this patch ok?

I'll vote for keeping the test case, please. It still fulfills a useful
purpose.

GCC must now promote __ATOMIC_CONSUME to __ATOMIC_ACQUIRE, and the test
case now reflects that - expecting the LDAXR instruction (load acquire
exclusive) over the more relaxed LDXR (load exclusive) that we emitted
prior to PR59448.

If we lose that promotion, or if we start emitting different instructions
for __ATOMIC_ACQUIRE, we have a regression, and this test should spot
that. I also wouldn't want to see the test XFAIL; we know what the correct
expected behaviour is and should update the test to reflect that - as in
Alex' patch.

Thanks,
James

The original test was written pre 59448 and expects GCC to implement
consume behaviour.  The workaround for 59448 changes GCC behaviour but
did not update this test case.  Going forward we can either remove the
test case completely, xfail the test case pending a proper solution to
59448 ? or change the test case to expect the current intended
behaviour of gcc.  This patch implements that latter, which seems
reasonable to me. Mike do you prefer one of the other two approaches ?

Did you see:

  if (val == MEMMODEL_CONSUME)

This text should provide the context for the fix. In particular, it
should explain what is meant by "safe" assembly. In this case, the reason
for your fix is included in the patch as a comment, but you need to give
enough information up top so that we can understand what your patch is
about and why it is correct.

This text confuses some terminology and mixes internal implementation
details and external predefine names.

In the interests of being accurate (we might forget the context of
this fix in future), I would suggest the following:

  To workaround Bugzilla 59448, a request for __ATOMIC_CONSUME is always
  promoted to __ATOMIC_ACQUIRE.  This causes "LDAXR" to be generated
  instead of "LDXR".

Here, we drop the internal implementation details of the compiler
(which may change and end up out of sync with this testcase) and concentrate
only on the user visible behaviours.

Thanks,
James
