I was trying to reproduce issue #11297 (CmmSwitchTest is broken on 32-bit platforms ) from Newcomers page and seems to stuck. I would like to ask for help here, but if there is a more suitable place to ask, please let me know.
This is the right place!
I've built current master (8c33cd4) stage2 compiler, removed "when(wordsize(32), expect_broken(11297))" from testsuite/tests/codeGen/should_run/all.T to see same errors as in issue and got this (unrelated?) assertion:
I don’t think it is entirely unrelated, but there is a separate ticket about this: https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10246 It even proposes a fix. But if you want to be unblocked in implementing #11297, simply comment out the assertion in Literal.hs (just for you), or compile without -DDEBUG.
Is there anything I can do with this? Is it because that test has 64-bit unboxed integers and I'm running it on 32-bit VM?
Right, but that is the point of #11297: The test case is tailored to 64 bit, and the task is to create a second test case with 32 bit numbers.
