Go back to school and learn about mutual exclusion. cmpxchg8b appears in glibc-2.3.x/sysdeps/i386/i486/bits/atomic.h . The "just cropped up" reflects poorly on the development process for Valgrind. It's part of a vicious circle: valgrind has not fully supported some features (floating point, threads, mutual exclusion) needed by exacting users, so those users tend to stay away, so valgrind gets less feedback from those users. Maybe Valgrind 3.1 will "just work" :-) -- |
