MIPS: fix truncation in __cmpxchg_small for short values

2019-02-11T20:02:08+00:00

__cmpxchg_small erroneously uses u8 for load comparison which can
be either char or short. This patch changes the local variable to
u32 which is sufficiently sized, as the loaded value is already
masked and shifted appropriately. Using an integer size avoids
any unnecessary canonicalization from use of non native widths.

This patch is part of a series that adapts the MIPS small word
atomics code for xchg and cmpxchg on short and char to RISC-V.

Update MIPS email addresses

2017-11-03T16:02:30+00:00

MIPS will soon not be a part of Imagination Technologies, and as such
many @imgtec.com email addresses will no longer be valid. This patch
updates the addresses for those who:

 - Have 10 or more patches in mainline authored using an @imgtec.com
   email address, or any patches dated within the past year.

 - Are still with Imagination but leaving as part of the MIPS business
   unit, as determined from an internal email address list.

 - Haven't already updated their email address (ie. JamesH) or expressed
   a desire to be excluded (ie. Maciej).

 - Acked v2 or earlier of this patch, which leaves Deng-Cheng, Matt &
   myself.

New addresses are of the form firstname.lastname@mips.com, and all
verified against an internal email address list.  An entry is added to
.mailmap for each person such that get_maintainer.pl will report the new
addresses rather than @imgtec.com addresses which will soon be dead.

Instances of the affected addresses throughout the tree are then
mechanically replaced with the new @mips.com address.

MIPS: cmpxchg: Implement 1 byte & 2 byte cmpxchg()

2017-06-29T00:42:25+00:00

Implement support for 1 & 2 byte cmpxchg() using read-modify-write atop
a 4 byte cmpxchg(). This allows us to support these atomic operations
despite the MIPS ISA only providing 4 & 8 byte atomic operations.

This is required in order to support queued rwlocks (qrwlock) in a later
patch, since these make use of a 1 byte cmpxchg() in their slow path.
