Details

WebKit implemented ToInt32 function using the FJCVTZS instruction provided by the Aarch64 architecture. Given how specific this instruction is to JavaScript, it is unlikely to be part of what C++ compiler would attempt to infer.

Recently, Bug 1679922 added the MOZ_AARCH64_JSCVT marco, which can be used to guard the implementation of the ToInt32 using inline assembly within SpiderMonkey.
