Hi!

Thanks for the patch!

Since test is x86_64 only - can we put an explicit skipcond then?

Otherwise LGTM.

Sergos.

LGTM, except for a few nits below and the single question.

(cherry picked from commit 850f8c59d3d04a9847f21f32a6c36d8269b5b6b1)

The `ASMREF_L` reference is defined as `REF_NIL`, so it isn't considered
as 64 bit address. On GC64 mode it may lead to the following assembly:
Typo: s/as 64 bit/a 64-bit/

Fixed, thanks!

| mov eax, edi
so, high 32 bits of the reference are lost.
Typo: s/high/the high/

This patch adds `IRT_NIL` to `IRT_IS64` mask, to consider `ASMREF_L`
64 bit long. Now the resulting assembly is the following:
| mov rax, rdi

Fixed, thanks!

Branch is force-pushed.


False-positive `if` condition in <src/lj_asm.c> is OK, since `op12`
already initialized as 0.

False-positive `if` condition in <src/lj_opt_sink.c>, <src/lj_opt_split.c>,
<src/lj_record.c> is OK, since `REF_NIL` is the last reference before
`REF_BASE` and this iteration of a cycle is still the last one.

Neither this test case, nor the original one from OpenResty fail before the patch on OSX/ARM64.
Is it expected behavior or not?

Yes, I think that non x86_64 arches are unaffected, since they use
`ra_leftov()` instead.

On x86 GC64 it behaves as expected though.
