#13427: Per-function code-generation options -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: bgamari | Owner: (none) Type: feature | Status: new request | Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.0.1 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- On ghc-devs Ed Kmett has [[https://mail.haskell.org/pipermail/ghc- devs/2017-March/013923.html|asked]] for some way to more precisely specify code generation options (e.g. should AVX be used?). This idea has taken a few different shapes in the thread, but I suspect that the most sensible approach is add something like a `TARGET` pragma, which the user could attach to a top-level binding. Since the interactions with inlining are non-trivial, I suspect you would want to require that this only be applied to `NOINLINE` bindings. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/13427 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
