configure attempts to detect the builtin atomics by building and running
the following code:
int main()
{
unsigned long long val = 1010, tmp, *mem = &val;
if (__sync_fetch_and_add(&val, 1010) != 1010 || val != 2020)
return 1;
tmp = val;
if (__sync_fetch_and_sub(mem, 1010) != tmp || val != 1010)
return 1;
if (__sync_sub_and_fetch(&val, 1010) != 0 || val != 0)
return 1;
tmp = 3030;
if (__sync_val_compare_and_swap(mem, 0, tmp) != 0 || val != tmp)
return 1;
if (__sync_lock_test_and_set(&val, 4040) != 3030)
return 1;
mem = &tmp;
if (__sync_val_compare_and_swap(&mem, &tmp, &val) != &tmp)
return 1;
__sync_synchronize();
if (mem != &val)
return 1;
return 0;
}
So something like:
suncc -o conftest conftest.c
./conftest
echo $?
with whatever other optimisation flags you pass to cc. Does that
program compile and run? I'd expect it to fail. Do you see the failure
in config.log.
