#8103: Segfault when passing unboxed Float# and Double# across modules ---------------------------------------------+----------------------------- Reporter: jstolarek | Owner: jstolarek Type: bug | Status: closed Priority: highest | Milestone: 7.8.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.7 Resolution: fixed | Keywords: Operating System: Linux | Architecture: x86 Type of failure: Runtime crash | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: codeGen/should_run/T8103 | Blocked By: Blocking: 6135 | Related Tickets: ---------------------------------------------+----------------------------- Comment (by simonmar): Interesting. Geoff's accidental change to the calling convention ''almost'' worked, it was just the generic apply functions that were still using the old convention because that code has its own implementation of the calling conventions (`utils/genapply`). So that's why reproducing the bug relied on not inlining something, thus using the generic apply code. The reference to `D1` is correct, because that's part of the ''return'' convention, which always uses `D1` regardless of whether it's a real register or not. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8103#comment:11 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
