Hi, I'm having trouble linking with head:

[1 of 1] Compiling Main ( bindisttest/HelloWorld.lhs, bindisttest/HelloWorld.o ) Linking bindisttest/HelloWorld ... Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64: "___builtin___clear_cache", referenced from: _flushExec in libHSrts.a(Storage.o) ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64 collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

This is on OSX 10.8.5, where gcc --version gives me

i686-apple-darwin11-llvm-gcc-4.2 (GCC) 4.2.1 (Based on Apple Inc. build 5658) (LLVM build 2336.11.00)

I get the impression that this commit is related. Is it the case that Apple switched from gcc to clang recently? Could that be why ___builtin__clear_cache is missing? I'm sorry, I don't really know anything about the runtime system, so am kind of stuck. On Sat, Nov 23, 2013 at 1:22 AM, wrote:

commit 5bab1a57f572e29dfdffd6d1ce8e53a2772b18fd Author: Austin Seipp Date: Mon Nov 11 10:26:03 2013 -0600

GHCi: Properly generate jump code for ARM (#8380)

This adds code for jumping to given addresses for ARM, written by Ben Gamari.

However, when allocating new infotables for bytecode (which is where this jump code occurs), we need to be sure to flush the cache on the execute pointer returned from allocateExec() - on systems like ARM, the processor won't reliably read back code or automatically cache flush, where x86 will.

So we add a new flushExec primitive to call out to GCC's __builtin___clear_cache primitive, which will properly generate the correct code (nothing on x86, and a call to libgcc's __clear_cache on ARM) and make sure we use it after writing the code out.
