            Bug ID: 100077
           Summary: libdrm atomic_add_unless() may reverse return value
                    meaning
           Product: DRI
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: BSD (Others)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: libdrm
          Assignee: dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: davshao@gmail.com

atomic_add_unless() in libdrm xf86atomic.h may reverse the meaning
of its return value.

Linux kernel documentation seems to indicate something like:
"Returns non-zero if @v was not @u, and zero otherwise."

A simple inverting the meaning of libdrm's return value
allowed glxgears to properly function for a hacked version
of pkgsrc on DragonFly 4.7-DEVELOPMENT on an Intel IvyBridge
integrated graphics machine.  glxgears was already properly
functioning on the same machine for NetBSD current, NetBSD
using its own atomic operations declared in its sys/atomic.h
header.

A one line (character) fix is of the form:

You are the assignee for the bug.
