Thanks. Arnd. My main concern is whether the operations are really atomic as 
they are in the kernel space. I have read some discussion in another forum that 
on other platforms, even if you are able to compile the atomic_add(), 
atomic_set(), etc. from an user space application,  they don't guarantee to be 
atomic. Thanks.

Regards,

Terry Liang
