In looking at the VAX ASM problem, I realized that the ASM in s_lock.h
is all formatted differently, making it even more confusing. I have
applied the following patch to s_lock.h to try and clean it up.
The new standard format is:
/*
* Standard __asm__ format:
*
* __asm__(
* "command;"
* "command;"
* "command;"
* : "=r"(_res) return value, in register
* : "r"(lock) argument, 'lock pointer', in register
* : "r0"); inline code uses this register
*/
