Hi Vladimir,
thanks for the review!
These methods actually do an atomic update of a memory location, so the name really describes what is happening.
I'll remove the change to interpreter_ppc.cpp and runtime_ppc.cpp.
Best regards, Goetz

Why call methods 'atomic': atomic_inc_ptr() and atomic_ori_int()?
Do you really need to change runtime_ppc.cpp only to remove empty line?
Looks fine otherwise.

Hi,
this change contains recent changes in the ppc directory mostly made by SAP. It's a ppc-only change. http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~goetz/webrevs/8077838-ppc/webrev.01/ - Recognition of Power 8 processors (by Tiago Sturmer Daitx). - Support for more new Power 8 instructions. - Support for transactional memory. This is implemented but not yet tested thoroughly due to limitiations of the OS support. Not enabled. - java.lang.math.*Exact intrinsics - Some C2 optimizations and fixes: * Handling of flag registers. Some instructions would lead to uncompilable methods due to not allocatable register patterns. * Free some integer registers to use them for allocation. Handle compressed oops base as constant. * Unscaled class compression. - Type profiling fixes. Please review this change. Best regards, Goetz.
