Hi Waldemar,

I see in commit e65912f8b2a6 ("rework most tests to work as standalone package") "tst-atomic" and "tst-atomic-long" were marked as disabled for all architectures as opposed to previously (in times of test-suite being a part of uClibc) disabled only for selected arches (IA64, MIPS and SPARC).

The only guess I have it was done due to inability to refer not-exported "atomic.h". Is that correct? But anyways I'm looking at a possibility to revive those as they might be of use especially in case of emulation of atomics.

Any thoughts on how that could be done?

Should we export atomic.h again? The header is removed since 536a0e3a05a0c7d9a4d741d9401c220900cf1e04.

Probably not as this will open again a can with worms. Fortunately I was able to get my problem understood and almost solved, I guess you're on Cc list of that discussion here: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-snps-arc/2018-March/003583.html

But then why don't we get rid of ./test/silly/tst-atomic*.c at all?
