The LPAE/ARMv8 page table format relies on the ability to read and write 64-bit page table entries in an atomic fashion. With the move to a lockless implementation, we also need support for cmpxchg64 to resolve races when installing table entries concurrently. Unfortunately, not all architectures support cmpxchg64, so the code can fail to compiler when building for these architectures using COMPILE_TEST. Rather than disable COMPILE_TEST altogether, instead check that GENERIC_ATOMIC64 is not selected, which is a reasonable indication that the architecture has support for 64-bit cmpxchg.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
