<div dir="ltr">LLVM contains some optimization pass that will generate instructions operate on i64 or even i128 and more. The upstream backend utilize the legalize stage that can break it into instructions with smaller integer types if the target machine does
not support that large integer type. There seems no way to prevent clang generate i64 instruction. Are you developing a new backend?<br>
