Subject: Fix potential data race in GC_SysVGetDataStart (SPARC)
X-Git-Tag: v8.0.0~1010
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d7907a557876fb0e28f1d708591ad9f2797362f6;p=platform%2Fupstream%2Flibgc.git

Fix potential data race in GC_SysVGetDataStart (SPARC)

* os_dep.c [SVR4 || AUX || DGUX || LINUX && SPARC]
(GC_SysVGetDataStart): Use AO_fetch_and_add(p,0) if available instead
of non-atomic read/write in *p = *p statement (thus, to avoid data race
though it is highly unlikely).
