But using these built-in functions might cause couple potential issues. Firstly, __sync functions originally support Intel Itanium processoer [1] but it cannot promise to support all 32-bit archs. Now these functions have become the legacy functions. As Peter also pointed out the logic issue in the function auxtrace_mmap__write_tail(), it does a cmpxchg with 0 values to load old_tail, and then executes a further cmpxchg with old_tail to write the new tail. If consider the aux_tail might be assigned to '0' in the middle of loops, this can introduce mess for AUX buffer if the kernel fetches the temporary value '0'. Considering __sync functions cannot really fix the 64-bit value atomicity on 32-bit archs, thus this patch drops __sync functions. Credits to Peter for detailed analysis.
