whitequark opened PR #1787 from i64-shift-libcalls to master:

These libcalls are useful for 32-bit platforms.

On x86_32 in particular, commit 4ec16fa0 added support for legalizing 64-bit shifts through SIMD operations. However, that legalization requires SIMD to be enabled and SSE 4.1 to be supported, which is not acceptable as a hard requirement.

(Actually, when implementing that commit I didn't yet realize that these shifts ought to be legalized via libcalls rather than expansions most of the time, but the expansions are just fine.)

With this commit it is finally possible to use cargo run --target i686-unknown-linux-gnu run foo.wasm without having to add --enable-simd.

Just a drive-by comment: I'm not too sure this will work. To get the ISA flags I had to add some extra machinery (see https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/pull/1759/commits/849d71bdb7bbcc3c6f6975dfb2224e75185dab06)

Yeah, you're right, it doesn't work. Which PR is that machinery added in?

#1759, which should be ready to go; @bnjbvr, here's another user for the ISA-specific flag machinery I added.
