#11816: Refactor SymbolInfo out of Linker.c -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: Phyx- | Owner: Type: task | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.2.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 8.1 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: #11223 Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- #11223 added a type `SymbolInfo` to `ObjectCode`. This is adding a larger memory overhead to the RTS then need by. `SymbolInfo` is used to determine if a symbol is weak or not. This information can be moved into it's own structure inside `ObjectCode` like a map. Since the majority of the symbols will not be weak this map should be fairly small. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11816 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
