That is a builtin function.  It does not necessarily expand to an actual
function call.  aarch64 will typically expand it to inline code.

Ah, so you are requesting external functions.

I am no aarch64 expert, but apparently there were some problems in
GCC 11, maybe that is what you saw?  Or with some distros, anyway.

It also matters if you have ARMv8.1-A enabled, the LSE instructions.

Open a GCC bug report if you have more details?  Thanks,
