#11395: The via-C code generation backend is incompatible with gcc 5.3.1 on m68k (ELF) --------------------------------------------+------------------------------ Reporter: mkarcher | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.10.2 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Linux | Architecture: m68k Type of failure: GHC doesn't work at all | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | --------------------------------------------+------------------------------ Comment (by mkarcher): I can confirm your obvservation that on amd64, gcc 5.3.1 does indeed take the type of the function pointer into account when it decides whether the return value is in %eax (for int), %rax (for void*) or %xmm0 (for double). It's interesting that gcc doesn't do it on m68k. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11395#comment:6 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
