If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Linus Torvalds commit 1aa7a5735a41418d8e01fa7c9565eb2657e2ea3f upstream The macro is not type safe and I did look for why that "g" constraint for the asm doesn't work: it's because the asm is more fundamentally wrong. It does movl %[val], %%eax but "val" isn't a 32-bit value, so then gcc will pass it in a register, and generate code like movl %rsi, %eax and gas will complain about a nonsensical 'mov' instruction (it's moving a 64-bit register to a 32-bit one). Passing it through memory will just hide the real bug - gcc still thinks the memory location is 64-bit, but the "movl" will only load the first 32 bits and it all happens to work because x86 is little-endian. Convert it to a type safe inline function with a little trick which hands the feature into the ALTERNATIVE macro.
