#11395: The via-C code generation backend is incompatible with gcc 5.3.1 on m68k (ELF) --------------------------------------------+------------------------------ Reporter: mkarcher | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.10.2 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Linux | Architecture: m68k Type of failure: GHC doesn't work at all | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | --------------------------------------------+------------------------------ Comment (by mkarcher): It seems gcc introduces a temporary double variable in the double/int mismatch on amd64, because the double-to-int conversion is a semantic conversion changing the representation. On the other hand, the void*-to- int conversion is reinterpreting the same value as a different type without the need of a conversion instruction (like cvttsd2si in the amd64 case). -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11395#comment:7 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
