Use sync-less atomics everywhere #205

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
TenFourFoxAtomicSet works fine on this quad, implying that sync is not 
necessary even on MP Power Macs. We could also jettison some code by simply 
hooking up the NSPR atomics to the stuff in os_Darwin_ppc.s, and the Intel fork 
can use os_Darwin_x86.s, all of which already is ready to use.

We'll do this in 19 final to start, and then backport to 17.0.4 if it looks 
good there.

I've finally gotten together the patch for TenFourFoxAtomicSet on Intel. It's 
just this patch plus reverting the Intel exception I made in 
pr/include/pratom.h that was included in the main Intel patch.

Landed in 19
I'll put this in 17.0.3 when I pull that (probably Friday)
