Problem with Atomic operations on a intel XScale(ARM) processor - XScale-IXP42x Family - c++

Question

We are facing a possible problem on ARM processor machine. We have done an implementation for smart pointers,which involves atomic operation for keeping track of the references. We are getting crashes for that. Is there a possible problem with atomic operations on ARM processor?

Answer 1

It's possible, but it's way more likely that there is a bug in your code.

Perhaps you should post some code.
