Why -lkmmv1?
You mean current (unversioned) LKMM has to be called v0 ???

My preference is to call current one as v1 and your new version as v2.

Either way,

This litmus test is not compatible with klitmus7, which is much
stricter than herd7's C parser.

You can have only int or int* variables in the exists clause.
Register variables need their declarations at the top of each Pn()
(classic C).

See below for klitmus7 ready code.

And tools/memory-model/litmus-tests/README need to mention this
litmus test.

        Thanks, Akira

---------------------------------------------
P0(int *x, int *y, atomic_t *z)
{
	int r0;

	WRITE_ONCE(*x, 1);
	r0 = atomic_add_unless(z,1,5);
	WRITE_ONCE(*y, 1);
}

P1(int *x, int *y)
{
	int r0;

	r0 = READ_ONCE(*y);
	if (r0 == 1)
		WRITE_ONCE(*x, 2);
}

exists (1:r0=1 /\ x=1)
