Yes, this is why it's within "if (!dirty)". If any bit was set, an atomic_xchg was done and the memory barrier is not needed. > If so, and if the while loop is not > executed (bits contained in the first word, and clean), isn't this barrier > superfluous then? Yes, I can add an "if (*p)" in the first if too. Paolo
