[JSC] We should keep unaligned access feature in certain architectures in macro-assembler
Created attachment 404119 [details] Patch
Comment on attachment 404119 [details] Patch Seems like it might help us catch mistakes if we had an explicit loadUnalignedPtr just so we could have the assertion for call sites where we think things are aligned.

Yeah, this is good, but I think currently, we have no way to enforce this condition at B3, e.g. B3 can freely compute addresses in any forms, while it is unlikely I think, this is possible that we will generate BaseIndex with Scale2 while it is pointing an aligned position to the pointer (Scale8). So, for now, this would be simpler solution.
I'll land it once EWS JSC build is done, since it is removing assertions which can occur only when Debug build is enabled, and this assertion was not hit in mac-debug previously. So, except for building, EWS status must not be changed.

Comment on attachment 404119 [details] Patch We can probably just remove the assertion. I added it because I wanted to catch cases where we used loadPtr but passed Scale64 for arm64_32. Since it's harder to debug that from the bad data later. I can just restore the assertion locally as I continue working on arm64_32 JITs.
