On ARM, 386, and 32-bit MIPS, it is the caller's responsibility to arrange for 64-bit alignment of 64-bit words accessed atomically via the primitive atomic functions (types Int64 and Uint64 are automatically aligned). The first word in an allocated struct, array, or slice; in a global variable; or in a local variable (because the subject of all atomic operations will escape to the heap) can be relied upon to be 64-bit aligned.

So maybe we should switch to atomic.Int64 from int64

I see 3 options:

• move stats to the top of struct

  bigcache/shard.go

  Line 32 in caa3415

  stats Stats

• use atomic.Int64
• instead of atomic use lock (that's already there)

@912929782 How to reproduce this issue? Does it happen with go test ./... we'll need to extend our CI with non x86 arch https://github.com/marketplace/actions/run-on-architecture

[912929782]

I expect this problem to occur on x86 systems as well

Forget to say, I am in the library: https://github.com/jpillora/overseer to use bigcache operation, result in this error. @janisz
