What I did was to assign to %o1 like is done with ldstub, so I assume that will work. You are right that we had trouble with 'cas' until we changed the typedef for slock_t from unsigned char to int, so I added this patch to use 'unsigned char' for sparcv8. As far as testing, I think we are going to have to wait for someone who cares about sparcv8 because none of our current Sparc guys are testing on that. -- Bruce Momjian http://candle.pha.pa.us EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com + If your life is a hard drive, Christ can be your backup. + ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
