Well, the impression I got from looking at cached google-html-ified versions of the MIPS PDFs was that there was no solution, only workarounds. If that's not the case, then I'm glad I managed to make an ass of my self thanks to the magic of poorly-rendered incoherent semi-views of said docs. In any case, I'll look into it more, for all I know, this points in the direction of my atomic ops code being börken. (Not out of the question.) > BTW, last time I checked, ftp.sgi.com still has all the old mips > manuals and errata available. Hm, ok. I think there was some stuff on techpubs a while ago, but when I went to check around last week, all I could find was maybe Heinrich's R4K user's manual. And plenty of MIPSIV stuff. I was probably just lost :) I'll look around on the main FTP. Thanks for the pointer :) Thanx, juli. -- juli mallett. email: jmallett@freebsd.org; efnet: juli;
