/* Note that we undefine the atomic operations here, in case they are
   defined as compiler intrinsics while building SDL but the library user
   doesn't have that compiler.  That way we always have a working set of
   atomic operations built into the library.
*/
 
/* 
  If any of the operations are not provided then we must emulate some
  of them. That means we need a nice implementation of spin locks
  that avoids the "one big lock" problem. We use a vector of spin
  locks and pick which one to use based on the address of the operand
  of the function.

  To generate the index of the lock we first shift by 3 bits to get
  rid on the zero bits that result from 32 and 64 bit allignment of
  data. We then mask off all but 5 bits and use those 5 bits as an
  index into the table. 

  Picking the lock this way insures that accesses to the same data at
  the same time will go to the same lock. OTOH, accesses to different
  data have only a 1/32 chance of hitting the same lock. That should
  pretty much eliminate the chances of several atomic operations on
  different data from waiting on the same "big lock". If it isn't
  then the table of locks can be expanded to a new size so long as
  the new size is a power of two.
