#8590: Reduce code size of CAFs -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: parcs | Owner: parcs Type: feature request | Status: patch Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler (NCG) | Version: 7.7 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 simonmar): Simon, this is pretty well documented already in `Storage.c`, all the points you mention are already covered. In fact some of it is *also* documented in `StgCmmBind`. I suggest: * remove the comments in `StgCmmBind`, replace with a pointer to `Storage.c`. Multiple comments describing the same thing are bad, because when making changes we'll tend to only update one of them. * edit the comments in `Storage.c` to bring them up to date with the changes. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8590#comment:7 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
