I am not sure if this will work, but how about dumping the assembly and looking for sign extension? C-- might be easier! Excerpts from Alex Dzyoba's message of 2016-07-09 08:25:39 -0400:
Hi, all!
I was working on #11758, which is about dropping binutils<2.17 hack, and while it was relatively easy to remove the hack itself, I'm not sure how to add a test case for it.
As I understand, after removing the aforementioned hack, native codegen now shouldn't generate sign extension. So my question is how to test it? Should it be Cmm file that will be tested with `compile_cmp_asm` like memcpy in "codeGen/should_gen_asm/memcpy.cmm"? Or should I stick to the Haskell test?
Thanks, Alex Dzyoba
