The __ALLOCA function allocates n bytes from the stack.
This function has the following format:
void *__ALLOCA (unsigned int n); |
n
The number of bytes to be allocated.
A pointer to the allocated memory is returned.
The __AND_ATOMIC_LONG function performs a bit-wise or arithmetic AND of the specified expression with the aligned longword pointed to by the address parameter within a load-locked/store-conditional code sequence.
This function has the following format:
int __AND_ATOMIC_LONG (void *address, int expression, ...); |
address
The longword-aligned address of the data segment.expression
An integer expression....
An optional retry count of type int . If specified, the retry count indicates the number of times the operation is attempted (which will be at least once, even if the count argument is 0). If the operation cannot be performed successfully in the specified number of retries, a value of 0 is returned. If the operation is successful, a value of 1 is returned.
If the optional retry count is omitted, this function loops back for a retry unconditionally on failure. In this case, the function can never return a failure value. It either returns a value of 1 upon successful completion, or hangs in an endless failure loop. |

This function performs a conditional atomic compare and update operation involving one or two longwords in the same lock region. The value pointed to by source is compared with the longword old_value. If they are equal, the longword new_value is conditionally stored into the value pointed to by dest.
The store will not complete if the compare yields unequal values or if there is an intervening store to the lock region involved. To be in the same lock region, source and dest must point to aligned longwords in the same naturally aligned 16-byte region.
The function returns 0 if the store does not complete, and returns 1 if the store does complete.
