Numerous testsuite failures on ARM due to missing mkJumpToAddr
Numerous ghci tests in the testsuite currently fail on ARM due to the lack of a mkJumpToAddr
definition. These failures look like,
ghc-stage2: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)
(GHC version 7.7.20130927 for arm-unknown-linux):
mkJumpToAddr not defined for ArchARM {armISA = ARMv7, armISAExt = FPv3,NEON], armABI = HARD}
Please report this as a GHC bug: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/reportabug
As it turns out mkJumpToAddr
is fairly straightforward to implement. I've done this in https://github.com/bgamari/ghc/tree/arm. This brings the number of unexpected failures in tests/ghci
from 44 to 4. These four failures are segmentation faults that I need to look more closely at.
