Re: [PATCH] powerpc: Implement atomic{,64}_{read,write}() without volatile

Instead, use asm() like all other atomic operations already do. +static __inline__ long atomic64_read(const atomic_t *v) +static __inline__ void atomic64_set(atomic_t *v, long i) s/atomic_t/atomic64_t/ in both lines. I've edited my copy of the patch. Ouch, sorry about that. Segher -
