#9251: ghc does not expose branchless max/min operations as primops -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: carter | Owner: carter Type: task | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 7.10.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.2 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: #9246 -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Comment (by carter): To clarify what I said: both the perf and reproducible primops will be added and the one I'll pick for base will the reproducible/ portable one. We agree. Bring the worry to the code review once I've got a proposed patch. :-). I write tooling for both workloads, I'm well well well aware of reproducibility being valuable. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9251#comment:7 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
