Awesome! Please post a link to the new version on devs when it lands! (I'm not quite at the point where I can keep up with the full commits firehose yet). This is very relevant for me. On Friday, March 7, 2014, Johan Tibell wrote:

With Simon's help I figured it out. I'm now refactoring StgCmmPrimOp so it's easier to have primops that have both inline and out-of-line implementations in the future.

Have you looked at some of the lowering code for other primops? What info are you missing?

Hi,

I'm trying to make allocation of arrays of small, statically-known size inline. For large or unknown size I just want to call the existing stg_newArrayzh function. In code:

doNewArrayOp :: DynFlags -> CmmFormal -> CmmExpr -> FCode () doNewArrayOp dflags res_r (CmmLit (CmmInt n _)) | n <= inlineAllocLimit = do -- Do everything inline. doNewArrayOp dflags res_r n = do emitCallTo "stg_newArrayzh" res_r n -- HERE

The question is: how do I emit a call to stg_newArrayzh, which is defined in PrimOps.cmm?
