Hi everybody,

WebKit{GTK+,WPE} maintainer here chipping in with a heads up...

I fixed this upstream a while ago:

  https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=174425

Note that you might need also the following patch for bmalloc:

  https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=174424

For WebKitGTK+ those patches were merged upstream since version 2.16.6; so
I expect that newer versions of qt5webkit based on some upstream WebKit
release from around July 2017 should be including the two patches linked
above.

That being said, I understand that your patch here targets versions of
qt5webkit based on *older* WebKit revisions, right? That's fine of course
and I think it would be desirable to check both for __ARM_ARCH_8__ and
__ARM_ARCH_8A__ like upstream WebKit does:

   #if defined(__ARM_ARCH_8__) || defined(__ARM_ARCH_8A__)
   // ...

Of course if qt5webkit does NOT use bmalloc, then you do not need the
corresponding fix for it — sorry, I don't know what's the qt5webkit situation
in this regard, I have not been following it much since the Qt port was
removed from the upstream WebKit source tree.

Patch looks good to me, but please double-check the comments above, in
particular the situation with bmalloc which might need a similar fix.
