#8896: ghci fails on Arm - "Illegal instruction" -------------------------------+----------------------------- Reporter: Ansible | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.1-rc2 Resolution: | Keywords: arm ghci Operating System: Linux | Architecture: arm Type of failure: GHCi crash | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: -------------------------------+----------------------------- Comment (by Ansible): Is that on the PI? I compiled using qemu instead of a real PI, and I used a 2G ram disk for swap. Without the swap the compile would not complete, nor would "cabal install cabal-install". Here's my build on the PI: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/80409492/ghc-7.8.1-rc2.zip and here's my .cabal folder. Compiling cabal-install also required the ram disk. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/80409492/pi_7.8.1-rc2-.cabal.zip And this is the distro I was using: https://ccrma.stanford.edu/~eberdahl/Satellite/ -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8896#comment:3 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
