Hey Johan, Superficial comments for now. Are you planning on supporting word variants? Callish mach-ops, as generated from primops, are not sunk across, but this behavior today is accidental (see Note [Foreign calls clobber heap]), so be sure to adjust the notes.

Hi,
I found myself needing atomic operations on basic, mutable numeric values. I wrote a short design doc that I'd like feedback on:
https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/AtomicPrimops
I will try to implement these for 7.10.
