I have attached linuxthreads/sysdeps/mips/pt-machine.h from glibc-2.2.2
below. (Glibc linuxthreads has alpha, arm, hppa, i386, ia64, m68k, mips,
powerpc, s390, SH, and SPARC support, at least in some degree.)
Since the actual instruction sequence is probably lifted from the
MIPS manual, it's probably much freer than GPL. For the paranoid,
the actual instructions, extracted, are just
1:
ll %0,%3
bnez %0,2f
li %1,1
sc %1,%2
beqz %1,1b
