#8157: Add a broader set of (C/CMM-based) atomic memory operations -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: rrnewton | Owner: rrnewton Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.6.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Comment (by rrnewton): UPDATE: Before this task is complete we should also convert the following C functions to primops: {{{ EXTERN_INLINE void write_barrier(void); EXTERN_INLINE void store_load_barrier(void); EXTERN_INLINE void load_load_barrier(void); }}} Otherwise Carter does not have a path to replace these with their LLVM alternatives (and thus get rid of the C calls). -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8157#comment:2 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
