#9391: LLVM 3.2 crash (AVX messes up GHC calling convention) -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: scpmw | Owner: Type: bug | Status: patch Priority: normal | Milestone: 7.10.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.2 (LLVM) | Keywords: Resolution: | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Operating System: MacOS X | Difficulty: Easy (less than 1 Type of failure: Runtime | hour) crash | Blocked By: Test Case: | Related Tickets: Blocking: | Differential Revisions: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by scpmw): LLVM 3.2 isn't blacklisted, so I think we are still "supporting" it, at least on paper. The comment might be referring to #7694? It's quite possible that this is actually the fix for that issue - crashes at virtually random places sounds about right. All I can say is that after applying the patch I was able to run the full test suite using LLVM 3.2. Without it, we get at least a dozen segfaults in there. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9391#comment:5 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
