Indeed!
The bit I missed previously is that PowerPC provides its own __atomic_op_release()
method:
#define __atomic_op_release(op, args...) \
({ \
__asm__ __volatile__(PPC_RELEASE_BARRIER "" : : : "memory"); \
op##_relaxed(args); \
})
... which maps to LWSYNC as you say, and my patch made that worse.

Correct, although the new logic is still RFC, PeterZ didn't like the first version
I proposed and might NAK them.
Thanks for the patch - I have created the patch below from it and added your
Signed-off-by.
The only change I made beyond a trivial build fix is that I also added the release
atomics variants explicitly:
+#define atomic_cmpxchg_release(v, o, n) \
+ cmpxchg_release(&((v)->counter), (o), (n))
+#define atomic64_cmpxchg_release(v, o, n) \
+ cmpxchg_release(&((v)->counter), (o), (n))
It has passed a PowerPC cross-build test here, but no runtime tests.
Does this patch look good to you?
(Still subject to PeterZ's Ack/NAK.)
Thanks,
Ingo

Subject: [PATCH] locking/atomics/powerpc: Move cmpxchg helpers to asm/cmpxchg.h and define the full set of cmpxchg APIs
Move PowerPC's __op_{acqurie,release}() from atomic.h to
cmpxchg.h (in arch/powerpc/include/asm), plus use them to
define these two methods:
#define cmpxchg_release __op_release(cmpxchg, __VA_ARGS__);
#define cmpxchg64_release __op_release(cmpxchg64, __VA_ARGS__);
... the idea is to generate all these methods in cmpxchg.h and to define the full
array of atomic primitives, including the cmpxchg_release() methods which were
defined by the generic code before.
Also define the atomic[64]_() variants explicitly.
This ensures that all these low level cmpxchg APIs are defined in
PowerPC headers, with no generic header fallbacks.
No change in functionality or code generation.
