Well, we could use a single 32 bit value without much problem, but the gcc doc claims gcc will replace the call with a helper function (Using a mutex, it can be implemented on any platform).

Here is the problem function: static uint64 clockFileAccess = 0; /* and the "tick" function */ static inline uint64 getClockFileAccess(void) { return ATOMIC_INC_AND_FETCH(clockFileAccess); } You cannot perform an atomic operation on an 8 byte value on a 32-bit system. Would it be possible to use the atomic operations on two 4 byte values to allow this code to work on 32-bit systems as well?
