That's because there is a difference between mips and mpis64. The assembly syntax looks similar, but there are subtle pitfalls involved in using the same code for both. You can look at the Linux kernel code for atomics in mips and mips64 to see if there are any differences. -- greg, who used to play around with MIPS64 in the good old days
