<div><br></div><div>The code does always use 64-bit guard variables on 64-bit systems. It does this:<br><br> // Guard variables are 64 bits in the generic ABI and size width on ARM<br> // (i.e. 32-bit on AArch32, 64-bit on AArch64).<br>
guardTy = (IsARM ? CGF.SizeTy : CGF.Int64Ty);<br><br></div><div>Having said that, PNaCl is 32-bit-only: PNaCl programs assume a 32-bit address space. We don't support 64-bit pointers in PNaCl.

<br></div><div>I've changed the patch to use the non-ARM guard variable ABI for PNaCl. Having looked at the code more carefully, I see it's inlining a different guard variable check on ARM, which we don't necessarily want to use for PNaCl; it's not just a different guard var size.<br>
