#8380: Numerous testsuite failures on ARM due to missing mkJumpToAddr -------------------------------------+--------------------------- Reporter: bgamari | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.7 Resolution: | Keywords: patch Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: arm Type of failure: None/Unknown | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: -------------------------------------+--------------------------- Comment (by bgamari): thoughtpolice correctly pointed out that in addition to implementing `mkJumpToAddr` we also need to ensure that the icache gets flushed after modifying the loaded code. I've added another patch to ensure this happens although this hasn't cleared up any further testsuite failures. These two patches brought down the number of total testsuite failures from 204 to 104 in my test environment. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8380#comment:1 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
